Nikon AF-S DX 40mm f/2.8G Micro Nikkor Review
Overall this is a very impressive and inexpensive lens that should bring true macro photography within the grasp of most DX-format camera users. There are a few minor weaknesses, the most obvious of which is relatively sluggish focusing in AF mode, but there is nothing serious to dislike about this...

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.

Lens Test: Nikon 40mm f/2.8G AF-S DX Micro
In both capability and cost, this close-up lens is a gift to DX-format (APS-C-sensor) Nikon shooters. A full-frame equivalent of 60mm, it delivers a lot for its meager $280 street price: 1:1 macro shooting, a fast f/2.8 aperture, metal lensmount, and great optics.

Instant Love
I've been a a photographer for 9 years so far, and I really loved my 50mm I owned. I didn't think any lens would out-do that lens. I was wrong. I bought this micro lens as my first micro lens to just play around with and do some fun macro work away from my business photography.

AF-S DX Micro Nikkor 40mm f/2.8G review
Small, affordable and with a minimum focus of 16.3cm, Nikon's 40mm f/2.8 micro lens may be suitable for more than just macro images. Richard Sibley finds out what it can do

great lens, great price
The depth of field is a fundamental property of the lens and f-stop. The manufacturer has little control over this, but prospective buyers should not be surprised to see some blurry images. In some circumstances it is necessary to use manual focus because the autofocus may select the wrong plane.
Pros:
- Flawless autofocus
- Manual focus very easy
- Lightweight
- Short overall length
Cons:
- Narrow depth of field
