Nikon AF-S VR 105mm f2.8G IF-ED Macro Lens

The lens that I’ve been using the longest as a photographer is the Nikon 105mm f/2.8G Macro – the F-mount lens, that is. Nikon has been selling it since 2006, and in that time it’s gained a lofty reputation (not just among macro photographers, either). Today, I’m reviewing it in full.

It's May Day, the celebration of spring! The snow has remained here only on the highest mountain peaks and where it managed to hide from the sun's rays. For the last time today, the children and I threw snowballs at each other. Today I saw some beautiful butterflies flying among...

Clovers_Backlit_Sun

Quick question: what's more complicated, buying a house or getting married? Answer: neither, it's buying a camera! That's right, and I wrote this guide because if you don't go about it right, then one day you'll realize you've made a horrible mistake and you'll give up photography. Okay, that could...

Dynamic range is the ratio between the strongest and weakest signal measured in a given context. For example, the dynamic range of a camera sensor is the ratio between the brightest and darkest signal that can be captured in a single image. Like most other things in photography, dynamic range...
