Nikon AF-S DX Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G Macro Lens: Expand the creative reach of your DX-format camera and produce eye-catching still photos and HD videos. A great choice for food photography or detailed product shots, this Micro-NIKKOR lens is ideal for general close-ups and yet still versatile enough to shoot portraits and landscapes.
Bought this as a macro lens, I'm able to get within 6 inchs of my subject and still focus. An added bonus was the ability to take great shots without a flash in low light situations. A little more than I wanted to spend when I went in looking, but, the salesperson I was working with said this was the better lens and I would be happier. She was right.
What's great about it: Good closeup shots, great in low-light situations.
