Major Features:

• Compact, versatile Micro-NIKKOR lens for close-up, copy work and general photography.
• Provides continuous autofocus from infinity to life-size (1:1 reproduction ratio).
• Exclusive Nikon Silent Wave Motor (SWM) enables accurate, high-speed and quiet autofocus operation.
• Two aspherical elements virtually eliminate coma and other types of lens aberration even at the widest aperture.
• ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass element offer superior sharpness and color correction by effectively minimizing chromatic aberration.
• Internal Focusing (IF) design allows faster, smoother autofocusing and eliminates barrel length changes for consistent handling—design also eliminates front element rotation, enabling easier use of polarizers and Nikon's Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System.
• Nikon's Nano Crystal Coat virtually eliminates internal reflections across a wide range of wavelengths for even greater image integrity.
• Super Integrated Coating (SIC) delivers superior color performance, while substantially reducing ghosting and flare.
• Optimized for edge-to-edge sharpness on both the Nikon FX-format (23.9 x 36mm) and DX-format image sensors.
• Rounded 9-blade diaphragm for more natural appearance of out-of-focus image elements.
