RE: I'M STILL IN MACRO MODE!... || ENG-ESP || (10 Pics)

in Visual Shots5 months ago

A master of macro photography! This genre can be a little addictive, right? I've been thinking about buying this... What do you think?

Beautiful shots, as usual @jlinaresp friend!

Oh @dimascastillo90 friend, this Nikkor Micro 40mm optical piece is very good, I once had the opportunity to try one and the result is excellent in terms of definition and sharpness, it also has a precise and relatively fast focus... Also, it is a versatile lens whose handling and advantages may resemble the traditional Nikon 35mm but providing the additional advantage of being able to make macros, it also works for wide-angle street photos and even for some close-range portraits of about 55-60 cm away from the subject... You can use it for almost everything at f/5 and still get good bokeh and light management...

Something to keep in mind: At the time I did not buy that lens due to its working distance which seemed a little long to be a macro lens (0.53m as I remember) because I was looking for something to get closer to the insects and I found the Tokina 100mm with a brutal working distance of 30 cm... But that cost me twice as much money!... :(

When you buy a lens to do macro, it is important to consider the minimum working distance, this will make you closer to the subject (and in photography always "closer is better") and need less cropping or resizing when editing/ process...

The AF-S Micro 40mm have a big brother, the AF-S Micro NIKKOR 60mm with a "ridiculously impressive" 18.5 ctms working focus distance!!!... A optical miracle in my opinion... But this lens is over the 300$ price! :( Too much for my and my "Venezuelan economy" hehehe ;))

I am at your command for any additional questions...

Thanks for appreciate my work friend, have a great weekend!
