This lens has been in my arsenal for several years. I only pull it out for product photos but is definitely the right one for the job!
Finding a sweet deal on one is not hard either!

Another video with no samples! I like to see what a lens will do in a review.

When will people learn that to simply narrate over sample photos or videos is the best thing. We don't need to watch you talk, or worse yet, we don't need to watch you USE the lens. Never made sense to me what is going through their minds.

Thank you. I found this lens on Facebook marketplace. In what looks to be very, very good condition. I'm going to check it out today. Great deal too

The Nikkor 105mm micro f/2.8 AIS (52mm filter) is one of my sharpest Nikon lenses. In addition to macro, I also love using it for half length, head & shoulder, and tight face portraits.

Still using it on my D750. It was my second lens I bought in the 90s for the F90X. Awesome lens.

@ 3:08 bower still makes those rubber hoods. Perfect for lens protection as well from bumps but from not bump & scratch arts & things if too close in. As an added feature, I use to cup up against glass with flex angle & cut glare & not scratch the glass. I use & love this classic 105mm f2.8D I prefer the larger deeper hood used in the outer 62mm threads so lens barrel can move in & out more freely & besides, once close focused the lens pops out of the lens hood for when you may not want it in the way now.

Very nice video. Just bought the S version of this lens. Really like shooting at the 105 mm focal length. Look forward to some of the images it will create.

Lens from the knighties. The times when knights rode on horses wielding this lens without any VR, still getting sharp pictures. I know it from my grandparents.

Is it good for portraits? I'm planning to buy one of those these days. Thinking about 85mm 1.8D or 105mm f/2.8D Micro. Which is better? Thank you for your answer sir! ^^

The 105mm is definitely a very versatile lens. It's been great for portraits as well. Though I would say that the 85mm 1.8D would probably be the better lens for the job. It's a little easier to deal with in tighter spaces and the 1.8 aperture will give you a really nice looking bokeh!

For portraits get the af-d 105 2.0 dc

The rubber lens hood is not the original. the 105 came with the typical hard plastic lens hood. the major difference to today's Nikon lens hoods was the button to disengage the lock [a bayonte solution].
