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

Nikon AF-S DX 40mm f/2.8G Micro Nikkor Review

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 lens
This is a great lens to have as it is just as good as the other portrait lenses in the same price category, like the 35mm and the 50mm, but it opens up a whole new realm of photography with the Macro feature. Once you get into it, it's so much fun and the possibilities become endless.

Great quality, great price!
I recieved this product from Future Shop in amazing time. The one and only negative comment I do have is about the packaging. If they had used a smaller box it would have been delivered to my mailbox and I would not have had to go and pick it up the next day from the post office, but it was worth...

Great Detail at Close Range
I recently purchased this Lens for the purpose of capturing small objects at close range. Right out of the box the first few images that I took were astounding. Although it doesn't have zoom feature, it will however focus automatically and I knew this when I purchased it.

Where have you been all my life
This lens is a winner...much, much more than I bargained for. If you love macro and also the ability to shoot with a 40 mm lens...YOU WILL LOVE this lens. Outstanding for Nikon...and an excellent price. Shoot like the pros with this small wonder. You will be amazed at the results.
