About this product

Product Information

The Nikon AF Micro-Nikkor 60mm lens caters to photographers looking for sharp images regardless of the focus distance. The lens offers exceptional life-size images, with a 1:1 reproduction ratio and also works well for landscapes. The lens uses the Nikon Close Range Correction system, which delivers superior photo quality at close focusing distances by increasing the focus range. The f/2.8 aperture is optimized for close-up photography and macro shooting, offering both background blur and top-level low-light performance. The lens is also equipped with a Silent Wave Motor, exclusive on Nikon lenses, and offers a fast, silent, and smooth auto focus. The extra-low-dispersion lens is also optimal for sharp images with high resolution, and photographers can use a manual focus to get the perfect look for any photo.

  • Classic Macro Lens

    I prefer this version of the 60mm Nikon Micro to the newer, redesigned lens. It has a closer focusing distance and since I always manually focus with this type of photography the added expense of the updated model does not add any value. Depending on what you anticipate doing with a macro lens, the 105mm is likely the most versatile focal length. I do a lot of product photography, and being able to switch between focal lengths to adjust field of view without altering my flash setup is the main reason I have the 60mm. The images are extremely clean and sharp from this lens, and AF-D products have always been built like tanks. This may be the most versatile product photography lens I own, because sometimes the 180mm or 105mm are too tight for larger items.

  • Good macro photography optics, in a cost-effective if slightly difficult to use lens.

    Good lens for specific use cases: (+) Lens is sharp from corner to corner. (+) Works seamlessly with the Nikon ES-2 Film Digitization kit - the main reason I bought it. I use it with the Nikon Z6 and the FTZ adapter. It resolves detail down to the grain on most films except those with the finest grain structure, and I'm confident that a D850 or Z7 would be able to get even that detail down. (+) The lens magnifies a little past 1:1. At 60mm you will need to be close to your subject - if working distance is something you want to maintain, you should go for the more expensive longer focal distance Nikkors. (/) Regarding autofocus: the lens has a screw drive system - which means your body must have the AF motor built in. Cheaper DSLRs and the mirrorless Nikons (through the FTZ adapter) do not have this, but the lens works fine in MF mode with my cameras (Nikon Z6 + FTZ adapter and Nikon D5100). There are newer micros with AF out there - but you will pay for that privilege. (-) Funky Ergonomics: There's a lock on board that keeps the AF from going all the way down to close magnification, which I suppose would come in handy if you're trying to use it as a regular lens (but why would you be doing that?). The MF/AF switch is also onboard - in my opinion, it's wholly unnecessary, as most cameras with the AF motor onboard have a switch on the camera. More oddly, when it's in AF, the focus ring on the lens disengages entirely - meaning you will not be able to make any fine corrections to AF - it's all or nothing on with this lens. Overall: great optics in a specialized form factor. If you need a close-focusing 60mm (particularly for digitizing film) this is solid choice.

  • This was a great buy at an excellent price !!!!!

    Although I have yet to take any photos I mounted this lens on my Nikon D750 and it is amazing! The weight of the lens is quite substantial and also the build quality is amazing versus the quality of lenses that are now coming out of China. This older lens was made in Japan and I am very pleased with all Japanese made Nikkor lenses. I have ordered another Nikkor Series D lens and I am eagerly awaiting its arrival. This lens was rated excellent (++++) and has met or rather exceded all my expectations.

    I lost my Nikon 60mm on a long road trip and was devastated. I received this one in less than a week, it was in better shape than the one I lost. In short, I love it! The packaging was very secure, the description was spot on, and the customer service was excellent.

  • This is my everyday carry lens regardless of the camera I am using.

    I could not be happier with this lens. For people like me who have a half a dozen Nikon cameras starting with the F3HP to my latest the D750 the D is the lens versioon that lets me use them with no compromises. It is incredibly sharp and focuses to less than 9 inches. This is a do everything lens. I have 2 and use them in place of the 50 mm F1.4D for every day carry..

  • Great Do it All Prime Lens

    Great do everything prime lens. Not the best macro because it's such a short focal length, but very good. Not the best walk around lens because it's a little long for that, but very good. A great portrait lens for full length portraits on a full frame, but a little short for a good head shot. All in all it's what I was expecting and am very satisfied with this lens.

  • Good Micro and General lens

    I use this lens for general photography, portraits and micro as well. I prefer 105mm lens for micro, but this lens give chance to use it as micro when I need it. It is sharp, durable , good quality and a good value. I found it mor useful than nikon 50mm.

  • Classic Nikon Lens --- Better than modern.

    I bought 2 lenses. The Nikkor 60mm f/2.8D and the Nikkor 60mm AF-S f/2.8G. Hands down, the 60mm D is finer made, focuses closer, and is more flexible in use. Both good lenses, but the Nikkor 60mm D is old-school and exacting.

  • Amazing lens!

    Thank you! it is an amazing lens and it became my primary one almost instantly. It is sharp, it has a good contrast (on higher F-stops, obviously). the only downside is that the lens is slow... but not much. It is used one, but quality is as described, and shipment was quick and easy. Will be shopping with you again in the future.

  • Good value for close ups

    This lens performs very well. A more recent model might focus faster and have slightly better contrast and sharpness, but surely not by a lot. I am sure that the slight damage to the front filter ring put off some bidders, but it appears to have nothing but a cosmetic blemish.
