The World`s First Micro Lens with Silent Wave Motor and VR
Nikon`s 105mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor lens is designed for outstanding close-up and general photography. It`s the world`s first micro lens with Nikon`s Silent Wave Motor (SWM) and Vibration Reduction (VR). SWM provides automatic focusing that is fast and quiet, and Nikon`s VR II technology allows for sharper images in handheld close-up photography, expanding versatility. Nano-Crystal Coat and ED Glass Elements enhance overall image quality by further reducing flare and chromatic aberrations. Internal Focusing (IF) facilitates a non-rotating front lens element, making use of circular polarizing filters and Nikon`s R1C1 Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System more convenient. Engineered for Nikon Digital and 35mm SLR Cameras.

Designed for outstanding close-up and general photography

Provides Continuous Focusing from Infinity to Life-Size (1:1), offering extra working distance in demanding conditions

New VR II Vibration Reduction offers the equivalent of shutter speeds up to four steps faster (at near infinity to 1/3x shooting). This provides sharper images in hand-held close-up photography and expands versatility

High Resolution and High Optical Performance with Nano-Crystal Coat and ED Glass Elements enhances overall image quality by further reducing flare and chromatic aberrations, contributing to improved contrast and resolution performance

Internal Focus (IF) provides fast and quiet auto-focusing without changing the length of the lens, retaining subject working distance through the focus range

Non-Rotating Front Design is convenient for use with circular polarizing filters and the R1C1 Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System

Specifically Engineered for Both Nikon Digital and 35mm SLR Cameras, ensuring high quality and high performance for all photographers—from amateurs to professionals

Great Macro and General Use Lens

"I have had this lens for about a year and always have great success with it. It is fast enough to capture great shots in low light and motion just stops with the click of the shutter. I also enjoy using it for macro work. Lots of detail. The price is high, but this is a great quality and highly durable lens. I have even dropped it from about waist level on rock in Moab, UT and it doesn't even have a dent or..." Read Full Review »

Not handling well so far

"I have been photographing insects and saw many great reviews about this lens. Until this one, I have been using SIGMA 70mm Macro, which works great. The problem with SIGMA was that I had rather high failure rate because of low shutter speed, or apature that blurs everthing. So, with VR, I thought it may help. Meantime, I also saw other review that VR might not help much with close-up photographing. Well, so..." Read Full Review »

"I use this lens for all my pet portraits. The only negative thing I can say about this lens is that it is heavy.
