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

The 105mm f/2.8 macro lens is the world’s first macro lens featuring a fast and silent built in motor, which Nikon calls it Silent Wave Motor (SWM) and Vibration Reduction II (up to 4 stops). It is primarily designed for and macro photography, but is also capable of taking excellent portraits. However, this will not be your ideal sports lens as the AF speed of a macro lens is pretty slow.

To improve from its predecesor, this new Nikon 105mm f/2.8 features Nikon's Nano Crystal Coat (N) and Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements in the lens elements in order to enhance the overall image quality by further reducing flare, ghosting, and chromatic aberrations, contributing to improved color, contrast and clarity. This lens is able to shoot at life-size (1:1), and with its minimum focusing distance of 0.314m, it offers extra working distance (compared to the Nikon AF-S Micro NIKKOR 60mm f/2.8G ED) when working with shy insects. As a plus, internal Focus (IF) is introduced into this lens, providing fast, accurate and quiet AF without changing the length of the lens. It can then retain the subject working distance throughout the focus range.
