I bought this lens as my general purpose replacement for the jit lens on my D7200 as well as for macro / slide duplication. It clearly shines as a macro lens, a little bit short. Macro images are particularly beautiful. Inexpensive, sharp focusing and good contrast make this a useful DX lens.

I really like this lens! It allows me to zoom very closely at small objects, such as insects or flower parts and I am able to get details that otherwise would go unnoticed.

I'm not a real savvy photographer but this lens really helps the quality of my pictures. Much more functional for my purposes than the basic leans available with the camera.

This lens is a good first macro lens, without a doubt you get what you pay for. If you want a beautiful macro lens get the 105mm, if you can't afford that then it's fine. Get this lens if you want to try macro photography or just want a smaller macro lens.

This macro lens is great for close distance macro shots and when not in macro setting the 40mm shots are also very sharp.
