Nikon AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G Review

The latest Nikon macro prime lens put to the test: Nikon AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G

 Nikon 40mm f/2.8 DX Micro test resultsWe tested the Nikon AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G on the Nikon D7000 and the results are very good. This lens is very sharp with a resolution score of 49 lp/mm, and quite homogenous on the whole field. Distortion and vignetting are almost nonexistent. And the chromatic aberrations are very few — in fact, invisible in the field.Nikon 40mm f/2.8 DX Micro vs other Nikon prime lensesIf we compare it with the latest G prime lenses by Nikon, the Nikon 40mm f/2.8 DX Micro maintains its scores for good resolution
