This is one of my favorite manual focus lenses. The lens is very sharp and the focal length is just right for getting closeup shots of even the smallest things (flowers, insects, anything). The lens is great for macro and non-macro shots and thus becomes the only lens I need for mid-telephoto applications. The build quality is second to none.

These lenses are some of Nikon's best and you can't beat the price. I've shot Nikon since 2005 and these are by far the sharpest and most color-accurate lenses they make. Only down side is manual focus but if you're shooting in the studio it doesn't matter. Full metal construction and more durable and well built than most of Nikon's lenses. Can't recommend these enough.

This lens is the best value with excellent quality build and image quality in my opinion if you can find one in excellent or better condition for under $200.00 with extension tube. You will need to get the 52.5mm extension tube to get 1 to 1 life size images with this lens.

This lens is sharper than a 12 meg sensor can capture, and it is easy to focus well. There are plenty of detailed reviews available for this lens online, but I will share a couple of observations after using it on an older D700 for a while. Using this lens on a modern camera means that you have to use manually-set aperture settings (which are done, conveniently, on the lens itself in the old way), but if you are serious enough about photography to consider buying a lens like this one, that should be no big deal (you should be picking specific apertures anyway, and the aperture ring makes it easy to do that). You can let the camera pick the exposure or use the camera's manual controls for that. (And on most cameras these days, you can let the camera pick an appropriate ISO, so you can still focus-then-point-and-shoot with fixed A-S settings if that's your bag.) Something that might annoy some people is the fact that the manual lens settings controls in (most? all?) Nikon DSLRs don't include the lens name or model (or focus, perhaps obviously), and it annoyed me for about a minute, but I wrote an AppleScript that uses exiftool command lines to fill most of that in later and am happy with the results. I have attached some of the test shots I took took right after receiving the lens.Read full review
