This AF D lens is very highly regarded and popular. In addition to being a superb macro lens, this Micro Nikkor also produces beautiful portraiture. Having used the AF-S VR 105mm Micro Nikkor G lens also, I along with many other Nikon die-hards prefer the D lens – it’s simply sharper and at half the price of the AF-S VR G lens! So why am I selling this great lens? To avert GAS, I’m exchanging it for another legendary D lens, the Micro Nikkor 60mm f2.8D, to have a super sharp lens I can use to digitalize my big film and slide collection in-camera, while at other times shoot standard 1:1 macro. I’ve also been concentrating on doing more ultra-macro at greater than 1:1 magnification, using reversed lenses on extension tubes, instead.
I’m neurotically fastidious in handling and caring for my gear, so this lens is in superb overall condition. The Autofocus, Manual focus, and aperture ring all work perfectly. The aperture blades are clean and move smoothly. Buttons, switches all function normally.
Cosmetically, there are only minor surface marks on the lens housing and caps from usage. The lens mount is like new. See photos. The front lens surface has always been protected by a filter. Thus, the glass remains crystal clear with no scratches, haze, fungus, or significant internal dust.
Price $325 includes insured shipping within the continental USA.
