While the more affordable Nikkor Z MC 50mm f/2.8 a is very good lens, a focal length of 105mm is a more popular choice for macro photography because the longer working distance is more practical. It means youre less likely to throw a shadow over your sub...
We had to wait quite a while for a native Z mount Nikon macro lens, and then two came along at once. The 105mm f/2.8 VR is the more advanced (and more expensive) of the two, but it provides stunning results for lovers of close-up photography. With a usefu...
