Nikon AF-S Nikkor 60mm F2.8G ED: Nikon’s best Micro Nikkor?

Introduction Nikon replaced the 8-element AF-D version of the 60mm f2.8 Micro with a redesigned model in January 2008. It adopts the firm’s current G-series spec consisting of a built-in sonic type AF motor and a new optical design with a total of 11-elements, including ED (extra low-dispersion) glass and IF (internal focusing). Like its predecessor it has floating elements for improved optical performance at close range and achieves 1:1 (life size) magnification without the use of extension tubes, albeit focusing down to 7.28" (18.49 cm), slightly closer than the 8.66" (22 cm) of the model it replaces.Despite
