Nikon 105mm f/2D AF DC Nikkor review by wolfbreath
This lens is better than I expected. Image quality, build quality ...all of it. For portraits, or telephoto in general, I feel it's among the best lenses in existence from Nikon. Only a couple of minor issues. Focal lenght is a little long on DX. Not that convenient in tight spaces obviously.
Pros:
- Sharp
- Creamy bokeh
- Excellent color rendition and contrasts
Cons:
- Sometimes get CAs wide open
- Required AF fine tuning on D7k (not that bad)

Nikkor AF 105mm f/2 D DC - Review / Test Report
The build quality of the lens is excellent thanks to combination of metal and plastic parts with a Nikon "pro style" crinkle finish. The length of the lens remains constant regardless of the focus setting and the front element does not rotate due to an RF (Rear Focusing) design.

Unbelievable Lens
First of all I need to start this review out by stating that I find this optic to be nothing short o
Pros:
- Excellent image quality even wide open and stunning from f/2.8 to f/4.
Cons:
- VERY expensive
- Expect to pay $600 secondhand, $725 grey market and $900 USA

This is the finest portrait lens I've ever used and I can't stop gushing about it. The picture quality is fantastic and it's increasingly more exciting to use everyday. Compared to a handful of other lenses I've tried and used, this is by far the best.
Pros:
- Superb images Tough build
Cons:
- A little big and heavy

Superb quality Lens
This is a great lens. It takes a while to master the defocus control but is well worth the effort. Nikon will probably discontinue this lens at some stage in the future but whilst it is an expensive item is worth the outlay and will increase in value when no longer available.
