Very limited focus
"I had originally purchased this lens for portrait use on my D200. I found that since it only focuses to 7 ft. you have to be very careful not to exceed this focus range if your shooting wide open. Other than this 1 problem, it's an excellent lens. Very sharp, great for macro...." Read Full Review »

"this is one of my favorite lenses. i usually use it for my 1st pictures at dawn, and keep it close by in the woods for water scenes. it does a great job capturing colors, at it's sharp and easy to focus manually (for some reason, on this lens i seldom use AF). i'm less than thrilled when zooming in very far into an image -- it's not good for that. but closeups at 60mm have incredible detail -- a self-portrait i took made me cringe!"

"One of the best lenses I have in my bag. The copy that I have is very sharp. I can say that, for all eight Nikon lenses I own...this one is the sharpest. It can focus down to a 1:1 life size reproduction ratio. I use it a lot for coin collections and small objects."
