Nikon 105mm Micro FX DSLR Lens for Macro Photography
This is a very unique prime Nikon lens. Why it’s unique: It’s made for macro photography, a maximum aperture of f/2.8 for low light, and a focal length of 105mm for some real up close shooting. This lens is made to capture amazing shots of flowers and tiny wild life by making them larger than life with incredible detail. The minimum focus distance is 1 foot, which is pretty close. 105Mm at 1 foot away will yield some pretty cool close ups. For all this, you will really have to be serious about your photography. The lens costs anywhere from $899.99-$984.95.
