Nikon AF-S Micro Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 G ED VR F Mount Macro Lens

The Nikon AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED is a renowned macro lens celebrated for its exceptional sharpness and versatility. Designed for close-up photography, it offers a 1:1 reproduction ratio, making it ideal for capturing intricate details of subjects like flowers, insects, and small products. Its 105mm focal length also makes it suitable for portrait photography, providing a flattering perspective and beautiful background blur.

Condition: This lens is in excellent cosmetic condition, appearing mint with no visible signs of wear. There is a very light internal fogging present; however, it does not appear to affect image quality, as it doesn't show up in photos. All mechanical and electronic functions have been tested and are fully operational.

Key Features:

• Vibration Reduction (VR): Minimizes camera shake, allowing for sharper handheld shots, especially useful in macro photography where even minor movements are magnified.
• Silent Wave Motor (SWM): Ensures fast and quiet autofocus, beneficial for capturing skittish subjects without disturbance.
• Nano Crystal Coat: Reduces ghosting and flare, enhancing image clarity even when shooting against the light.
• Internal Focusing (IF): Maintains the lens' length during focusing, providing a consistent balance and preventing accidental contact with subjects.

Impact of Light Internal Fog: Light internal fogging can sometimes lead to a slight reduction in contrast, particularly when shooting in strong backlight or scenes with significant bright areas. However, in this lens, the fogging is minimal and does not manifest in sample images, indicating that its impact on image quality is negligible. For most shooting conditions this lens will continue to deliver sharp, high-contrast images. Please see sample images for reference. 

Why Choose This Lens: The Nikon 105mm f/2.8G VR is a versatile addition to any photographer's kit. Its macro capabilities open up a world of detail, while its performance in portrait photography is equally impressive. The slight internal fog does not detract from its overall performance, making it a reliable choice for both enthusiasts and professionals seeking quality and versatility.
