In this episode of Legends of Nikon we pay our respects to the AF Micro Nikkor Z 60mm f/2.8 D lens. A true legend among legends.
The Micro Nikkor 60mm f/2.8 D is a versatile and highly regarded macro lens, perfect for capturing stunning close-up shots with exceptional detail and clarity. This lens is a favorite among photographers who specialize in macro, portrait, and product photography due to its sharpness, color accuracy, and reliable performance.
Key features of the Micro Nikkor 60mm f/2.8 D include a 1:1 reproduction ratio, allowing photographers to capture life-size images of their subjects with intricate detail. The fast f/2.8 maximum aperture provides excellent low-light performance and enables beautiful background blur (bokeh), making it ideal for isolating subjects from their surroundings.
The optical construction of the lens comprises 8 elements in 7 groups, ensuring high resolution and contrast. The Close-Range Correction (CRC) system maintains image quality at both close and distant focusing distances. With a minimum focusing distance of just 0.22 meters, this lens allows photographers to get incredibly close to their subjects, revealing details that are often invisible to the naked eye.
The Micro Nikkor 60mm f/2.8 D is compatible with both full-frame (FX) and APS-C (DX) Nikon DSLR cameras, offering versatility for different photography needs. Its compact and lightweight design, weighing only 440 grams, makes it easy to carry and handle, even during extended shooting sessions.
Autofocus is driven by the camera’s motor, providing quick and accurate focusing. For precise manual focus adjustments, the lens features a smooth and responsive focus ring. This is particularly beneficial for macro photography, where fine-tuning focus is often necessary.
The Micro Nikkor 60mm f/2.8 D is constructed with durable materials, ensuring longevity and reliability. Its robust build quality makes it suitable for a variety of shooting conditions.
In summary, the Micro Nikkor 60mm f/2.8 D is a high-performance macro lens that excels in close-up photography, delivering exceptional sharpness, color fidelity, and ease of use. Whether capturing the intricate beauty of nature, detailed product shots, or stunning portraits, this lens is a valuable addition to any photographer’s kit.

This is one of the greatest lenses ever made and probably the most underrated lens ever made.
@@albertjimenez7896 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Love both the Nikon 60mm and 105mm AFD macro lenses ...🦘
@@roybixby6135 🙌🙌🙌🙌 bring it to the Z mount Nikon
This must be my all-time favourite on my Zf body. I drag it along all the time for Industrial Exhibitions, it’s phenomenal as a portrait lens in BW. Cheers for sharing, Zwade.
@@bsc001 Thanks for watching!
Gotta add this one to my D-Era lenses wishlist, right after 180 f2.8
@@loihpatli both are awesome 🙌🙌
I've had a mint 55mm f2.8 Micro-Nikkor AIS for my Nikon F2 film kit so I never had a need for this lens but it sure looks fine!
It's really great. Really versatile
This was one in our check-out pool i got spoiled with in the 90's. I found one in near mint condition several years ago at a pawn shop for just over $100. It's my second most-used prime, right behind an 85mm.
@@OriginalWatchcow 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
The original product spec said it was designed for "copy work" (slides and documents). It has a flat field so using this for slide or document copying is excellent
@@petey4018 now you need 58mm noct for that I think and it’s $7700 more lmfao
Nikon legends yes. Maybe some videos about legends as the D4 and D3s?
@@Audimann might tackle cameras in the future. 🤙🤙
I also have this lens, I will try and shoot some film with it, watch out !!!
@@JRodPhotoArt JRod with the retro vibes! 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Great lens, especially on DSLR, but difficult to use on Z cameras with manual focus, due to a relatevely short focus ring throw (on medium and longer distances, while for macro it’s fine)
@@stargazingicarus ☝️☝️☝️ thanks for watching
Don't have this one but do have the Tokina 100mm f2.8D. One of the better macro lenses for the F mount. Another would be the Zeiss 50mm f2 makro planar. So not a full makro because it goes to 1:2. But one of the sharpest 50mm lenses out there.
I did comment a bit further up, I do have both the Nikkor 60mm and the Tokina 100 2.8D. Whilst the Tokina is a great lens in its own right, I do prefer the rendering of the 60mm Nikkor.
@@bsc001 when I find a great deal secondhand I will get it. It is on my wish list for some time now.
The Tokina is a fantastic lens for so little money 🙌
ZWAde ZEE Wade Photo!
This was/ is a good lens, and my AF-S version is also quite good, and one of my favorite lenses.
@@georgedavall9449 bring it to the Z mount Nikon
Just coming up to speed on Nikkor vintage lenses. Will the D lenses autofocus on F100 and F4 bodies? Those are the two AF bodies I bought mint and trying to find the best lenses to use on them. Thank you and take care.
@@stevenwaldstein2249 I actually had to double check, had me doubting myself haha according to google both camera should auto focus D series lenses 🤙🤙🤙🤙
You should note, I’m not sure if this is fact on the f100 because it was released a year before G series lenses, but for sure on the F4, G series lenses will auto focus, but because there is no aperture ring in G lenses, they can only be used in P and S mode. There’s no way to control aperture.
Again, You’d have to ask around about G lenses in the F100.
Hope I was informative for you :)
@@ZWadePhoto Thank you.
