Not only is it a large optic, it works out at 120g heavier than Canon's 100mm macro, weighing in at a mighty 720g. It's unique in that it's the only lens to incorporate optical image stabilisation with Nikon's Vibration Reduction (VR II) function offering the equivalent stability of a shutter speed...

Very sharp lens and beautiful photos on an Epson D300. It is heavy and a bit cumbersome, but all is forgiven when the photos show up on the computer screen or in prints. Ideal macro lens -- right focal length (at least for my tastes.
Pros:
- Sharp
Cons:
- Automatic focus sometimes hard to achieve
- Generally use manual most of the time
- VR doesn't work reliable at close distances
- For photos this close one should be using a tripod anyone so no big deal

Fantastic lens
I had a very sharp canon 100mm macro with my last camera and it was a fantastic lens which produced excellent macro and portrait shots. This lens blows it away totally. Im using it on a D600 FX camera and the results are outstanding, exceptionally sharp and no visible CA or distortion.

Fantastic macro lens
Well, not to be confrontational or anything, but the guy who said this is inferior to the Tamron 90 is on crack, NO off-brand lens can compare to a mid-to-high-range Nkon or Canon lens. This lens is far sharper than any third-party lens.
