Not the lens pictured

I ordered this expecting the auto VR lens, however after it arrived, it was a MANUAL FOCUS lens. Very disappointed. It is a quality lens, but with modern DSLR's, it doesn't register for any of the information that comes with normal AF lenses.

Nikon AF-S Micro NIKKOR 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED VR

Definitely the macro lens to start. Maybe for nice softer background look for 200mm macro, and for higher magnification than 1:1 try reverse macro technique, but in basic range this is the the only choice.
Pros:
  • Optical stabilizer (works fine even at close-up distances)
  • ultra fast focusing (from 0.5m - ∞)
  • durable metal body
Cons:
  • - The focusing is amazingly fast from 0.5m further
  • but on the macro distance 0,3-0,5m is not so accurate as at the longer distances
  • but in this situation you will focus manually either
  • - "framing" is moving during focusing (find more info on internet reviews

Very nice

The last macro lens I owned fit my Pentax K1000 manual (film) work horse body and it was not fixed length and had almost no image distortion at edges. It was a great all purpose lens that also happened to be a macro. Compared to today's prices it also cost almost nothing.
Pros:
  • Easy To Use
Cons:
  • Fixed Focal Length

Liked the non VR better

This is a great lens, but I'm not sure why I own it. I loved the non VR version of this and a voice in my head told me that this would be better. Perhaps it will if I ever shoot this focal length without a tripod, but I don't.

Nikon AF-S 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED VR Micro Review

Thanks to the addition of ( ) technology this is a big lens by conventional 100mm standards, and it is also heavier and more expensive than the norm. It is, however, very easy to hold and produces some great results.
Pros:
  • Packed full of features
Cons:
  • Dubious use of VR technology

Nikon AF-S 105mm f/2.8G Macro VR F2.8 G - BRAND NEW review

Nikon packed many new features into the Micro-Nikkor AF-S 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED VR. The most obvious one is probably the new IF design so the physical length of the lens remains constant regardless of the focus setting.
