105mm Macro lens

Your DSLR’s Best Friend

A must-have for standard portraits and everyday use, the AF-S NIKKOR 105mm f/2.8G is a VR (Vibration Reduction) lens that will absolutely surprise you. The 105mm focal length with a fast f/2.8 aperture allows you to capture stunning images with a shallow depth-of-field, letting your subjects stand out from their backgrounds. The AF-S NIKKOR 105mm f/2.8G may soon become your new favorite lens.

Brilliance In Any Light Get Astonishing Low Light Results

This lightweight standard lens is a great travel companion because you never know when a beautiful, sunny day will turn cloudy and rainy. With its fast f/2.8 aperture, the AF-S NIKKOR 105mm f/2.8G will capture even low-light situations with stunning brilliance.

Beautiful Background Blur Achieve More Natural Depth Of Field

Whether you're shooting portraits, food or nature—indoors or outdoors—the AF-S NIKKOR 105mm f/2.8G VR (Vibration Reduction) lens renders a beautiful, natural background blur (Bokeh) at its wider aperture settings. And its 105mm focal length is perfect for creating natural perspective in your photographs.

Capture Every Detail Shoot Tack-Sharp Portraits Every Time

Nikon's Super Integrated Coating (SIC) enhances light transmission efficiency and offers superior color consistency and reduced flare, while the AF-S NIKKOR 105mm f/2.8G's Aspherical Lens Element (AS) virtually eliminates coma and other types of aberrations, even when shooting at the widest available aperture. Pair that with Nikon's Silent Wave Motor (SWM) for fast, accurate and quiet autofocus, and you can be sure all of your portraits will be tack sharp.

Silent Wave Motor

AF-S NIKKOR lenses feature Nikon’s Silent Wave Motor (SWM). This technology converts 'traveling waves' into rotational energy to focus the optics. This enables high-speed autofocusing that's extremely accurate and super quiet.

M/A

Select NIKKOR lenses have a focusing mode which allows switching from automatic to manual focusing with virtually no lag time by simply turning the focusing ring on the lens. This makes it possible to seamlessly switch to fine manual focusing while looking through the viewfinder.

Aspherical Lens

A lens with a curved, non-spherical surface. Used to reduce aberrations and enable a more compact lens size. Aspherical lenses minimize coma and other types of lens aberrations, even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting distortion in wide-angle lenses and help contribute to a lighter, more compact design by reducing the number of standard (spherical) elements necessary. Aspherical lens elements correct these distortions by continuously changing the refractive index from the center of the lens.

Super Integrated Coating

Nikon Super Integrated Coating is Nikon's term for its multilayer coating of the optical elements in NIKKOR lenses.

    Customers are mixed about the focus of the camera lenses. Some mention that it's an excellent lens that focuses fast and has good optics, while others say that it focuses pretty slowly.

    Micro Skills are a snap, portraits take more time
    This lens is a tank. It is very solid and I use it on my wife's d5100. I've had it for about 6 months now and I use it mostly for taking pictures of stuff in the yard. I tried for a while to do portraits and people with it, but the focusing is quite dificult for me to nail. If it is very bright outside the AF is solid, but in low light the focusing is a challenge for portraits.The 105mm on my cropped sensor provides a decent working distance, such that you can get a housefly to fill up a good amount of the frame while still being a 5-6 inches from the fly. macro focusing is spot on and the VR really helps you are taking random shots in the garden and you don't have the time to set up a tripod. See my picture above of the fly on a pink iris. I give 4 stars because I thought the portrait utility would be better based on other reviews so this lens is a little less flexible than I thought. The micro ability is flawless though.One other note - when I actually do get a portrait focused right, the image quality awesome and the picture is very silky looking - I love some of the shots of my boy i've taken with this. I really prefer the look of the image with the depth compression and low distortion compared to my 50mm 1.4, but like I said, the AF is tricky. I don't feel like I can count on getting a good sharp shot with moving subjects like kids. And it is awful for sports photography, for those same reasons, unless you are just snapping pictures of the athletes standing around.When you put the hood on this thing, it looks pretty beefy. Despite the cool look I often take the hood off or flip it, because between the lens and the hood, it stretches over a foot off of your camera body.
