The Nikon AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/3.5G ED VR is a compact and lightweight DX format macro lens with high-quality optics which delivers a 35mm format equivalent focal length of 127.5mm. The lens is constructed with 14 elements in 10 groups (with one ED glass element) and weights approximately 355g. With this lens, you can achieve 1:1 reproduction ratio to enable life-size close-ups of extremely fine textures and details. The smooth autofocus delivered by the Silent Wave Motor combines with the internal focus system to make it ideal for getting really close to subjects. The closest focusing distance is a mere 28.6cm. Furthermore, Nikon’s second generation Vibration Reduction system delivers steady images to both the sensor and viewfinder, enabling more flexible hand-held shooting for shutter speeds that are up to 4 stops slower.
