Best Lens for: Flower Photography Closeup Photography Food Photography Portraits Landscape Videography Very light China made lens. Small too. But don't consider this as a drawback. This small lens can do wonder if you know how to use it.

Great option if you are on a budget

I've been using this lens for a few months off and on with a D5300. The only thing that isn't great about this lens is the auto focus. It constantly rotates the dial back and forth, and I've waited minutes for it to either take the image, or I just turn the camera off.

Great lens

Very good. Sharp images, but minimal focal length is very short. Its great for still life, and I use it for jewelry and portrait. One thing I fell. Manual focus is very very hard. But maybe its my one

Was very impressed on this Nikon 40mm Lens. At first i was a little upset but then i played with the settings and boom happy. I use it to take close up pictures with my Live Coral that i sell online. Gotta get closer then i 60 or 105mm but for the price it was def worth the purchase.

Purchased this lens to take close-up and macro photos. Prior to purchase, I read probably hundreds of reviews of lenses from different manufacturers. This lens seemed to come out on top for positive reviews and low cost. I wasn't disappointed.

This lens is kind of an odd duck. It is the equivalent of a ff 60 macro in dx format. There are a couple of positive attributes it has going for it - good flat field, excellent sharpness from 2.8 on, small, light, and focusses pretty close, and really very affordable.
Pros:
  • Sharp wide open
  • good contrast
  • close focus
Cons:
  • DX only

Great DX Macro / Micro for Nikon owners

I recently purchased the Nikon AF-S DX Micro Nikkor 40mm F/2.8G and found it to be a well manufactured great performer for DX Cameras. No obvious distortion was evident across the focal range and excelent sharpness under maximum camera image zoom.
