Nikon 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED AF-S VR Micro-NIKKOR
Lightbulb Rentals offers the Nikon AF-S VR Micro-NIKKOR 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED, a contemporary rendition of the classic short telephoto macro lens renowned for its exceptional close-range capabilities. Achieving life-size 1:1 maximum magnification and a minimum focusing distance of 1′, this lens is designed to excel in macro photography. Its advanced optical design includes one extra-low dispersion element, which effectively minimizes chromatic aberrations to deliver high clarity and precise color accuracy.
To enhance performance in various lighting conditions, the lens features a bright f/2.8 maximum aperture that enables control over depth of field, ideal for isolating subjects and employing selective focus techniques. Both Nano Crystal and Super Integrated Coatings are applied to the lens elements to suppress flare, ghosting, and internal reflections, ensuring enhanced contrast and color fidelity particularly in challenging lighting scenarios.
The Silent Wave Motor AF system provides fast and virtually silent autofocus performance, suitable for both still photography and movie recording. Manual focus override is seamlessly achieved by simply turning the focus ring. Additionally, VR (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization compensates for camera shake by up to three shutter speed steps, facilitating sharper handheld shooting in low-light conditions.
Designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount cameras, the lens also functions effectively on DX-format models, offering a 157.5mm equivalent focal length. Its internal focusing design maintains the lens length during focusing and promotes faster autofocus speeds. A rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality, enhancing shallow depth of field effects.
