Nikon 105mm Macro f2.8 D AF FX IF-ED lens + Nikon UV filter.
This camera was made in Japan, not Taiwan. Its mount is metal, not plastic. Its 9 blades yield a beautiful bokeh, making it an excellent portrait lens as well as a micro.
At approximately 12 inches from the target, the image is true 1:1.
Note that this is the D model which transmits focus distance to the camera and flash. This permits firing a ring flash within inches of the target.

All references to 'camera' should read 'lens'.
Tired.

Did you buy this from Nikonian72 I know he just upgraded to the G
Yes. Can't get a better endorsement than that.
He gave me permission to refer to his gallery.
I set on the counter all day but it didn't take anything to compare with his images! Rats! Cheap capitalistic lenses!
Lens is sold.
Sold 15 minutes after I posted it.
Damn!!! Under priced it -- obviously! :thumbup:
