Nikon AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/3.5G ED VR Lens

The Nikon AF-S DX Micro Nikkor 85mm f/3.5G ED VR is an APS-C macro prime lens built for Nikon’s F-mount DSLR system. It achieves a maximum magnification of 1:1, allowing subjects to be captured at true life-size reproduction on the sensor, making it well suited to close-up photography of small subjects including insects, flowers, products, and fine detail work. At 85mm on an APS-C body the working distance between the front of the lens and the subject at 1:1 magnification is generous, reducing the risk of disturbing light-sensitive subjects or casting shadow during shooting. Vibration Reduction image stabilization assists with maintaining sharpness during handheld macro shooting, and the Silent Wave Motor delivers quiet and responsive autofocus performance without requiring a body-side focus motor. Extra-low Dispersion glass elements help control chromatic aberration across the frame.
