Great Lens Overall, I love this lens. I would say I’m probably an advanced beginner at photography. I am still using my first DSLR (Nikon D3300) and this was the first lens I bought aside from the two that I got with the camera. 40mm is a great focal length for an all purpose lens. This lens may not be quite as fast as the 35mm 1.8, but it is still very capable everything most people would be doing (excluding very low light photography without flash). It’s a versatile lens which allows you to get closer than most other lenses will allow, which is something I can really appreciate! I would recommend this lens for someone who, like me, is interested in macro photography, but doesn’t yet want to make the large financial commitment needed when buying one of the more dedicated macro lenses. I decided on this one, after extensive research, over one of the more expensive macro lenses because it made more sense for me to test the waters before going all out and buying an expensive macro lens. You’ve got…
Fantastic general purpose Lens with beauitiful Bokhe I only had this lens a few months before my camera bag was stolen, along with it this lens. How over in the short amount of time I learned to love this lens.Good Glass is what it’s all about and I have to say this lens has it. Okay this lens has a razor thin depth of field and at times gave to work around that. It does create issues for novice shutterbugs when shooting macro. In the end any Photographer worth their salt can overcome that.The Bokhe on this lens is amazing, making it a dream for portrait photography, and with it being a macro lens I’ve found that it is just the ticket when shooting babies. I was able to get in for close ups and not have to crop at all.Ive used it for Macro – Street photography – Portrait and Wedding Photography for the short time I had it and I don’t mind saying I had a blast shooting with with lens and will get it again soon.At f/2.8 it is not the best lowlight lens for shooting in clubs and events…
GREAT MARCO LENS FOR THE MONEY FOR SURE! Was very impressed on this Nikon 40mm Lens. At first i was a little upset but then i played with the settings and boom happy. I use it to take close up pictures with my Live Coral that i sell online. Gotta get closer then i 60 or 105mm but for the price it was def worth the purchase. I have already made the money back the first weekend selling coral and got kudos on the photos. Def a great deal and purchase. I went to bestbuy to buy it being it was same price, of course the multi million dollar company didnt have it in stock so i bought this from the parking lot and had it the next day! Kudos. Fast Shipping, Great Product, I have included some photos of my corals.
