Nikon AF Micro-Nikkor 60mm f/2.8D Lens 

 

 

Nikon AF Micro-Nikkor 60mm f/2.8D is a macro lenses with a min. focus distance of 0.22m resulting in a max. object magnification of 1:1. The build quality of the lens is very good thanks to an outer barrel made of quality polycarbonate with a sleek finish. The broad, rubberized focus ring operates quite smooth. Typical for most macro lenses the Nikkor has a linear extension system so its size increases significantly towards closer focus distances. The front element does not rotate so using a polarizer is no problem. The Nikkor features an independent ring for switching between AF and manual focusing - a dated design compared current AF-S lenses. The lens has no internal AF motor and relies on a slotted drive screw operated by the camera. As a result the AF generates a moderate degree of noise. When focusing throughout the whole range the AF feels a little slow but at standard distances it's really acceptable. A focus limiter is available to prevent excessive focus hunting when using the lens for conventional (non-macro) photography.

Close-up to approx. 0.22m/0.6 ft. Close-Range Correction (CRC) system provides high performance at both near and far focusing distances Nikon Super Integrated Coating for minimized flare and ghost, providing good color balance 90.4mm working distance
