After testing more than twenty objectives for reflex, I can quietly and calmly say that this is one of Nikon 105mm TOPS 3 goals to possess. I have also devoted an article on my website very thorough Photoexposition.fr but for short: - Distortion almost zero - Incredible Piqué in the vein of the Nikon 16-35 - Relatively low weight for a telephoto lens - Formidable performance in macro - Autofocus very fast (in macro mode to less than 50cm, a little slower, which is quite normal) There was a time when I always walked with my SLR, a flash, 50mm and 70-200mm. The act of simply swapping the 70-200mm me first ease back, ie shoulders, while keeping a remarkable picture quality. It is true that I now have to change the distance of shot by moving myself, but I gain a stabilized macro lens always at hand. More, if you like, on my website photoexposition.fr
