Great for: macro portrait landscape

Nikon's manual-focus 105mm macro — the well-regarded Ai-S Micro-Nikkor with striking optics for macro and portraits.

The Nikon Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 Ai-S is a manual-focus macro prime for Nikon F-mount, produced since 1983. Ten elements in 9 groups with CRC (Close Range Correction) floating element design. Seven straight aperture blades. 52mm filter thread. At 515g. 0.41m MFD. Native magnification 1:2 (half life-size). Manual focus only — Ai-S designation, no AF motor.

The optical design uses 10 elements in 9 groups with CRC floating element for corrected performance at close focus. Seven straight aperture blades (hexagonal bokeh at stopped-down apertures). The 52mm filter thread. At 515g the lens is moderate. Minimum focus distance of 0.41m. Native maximum magnification 1:2 (0.5× — half life-size); 1:1 (1.14×) requires the PN-11 extension tube. Manual focus only. f/2.8 maximum aperture.

The native 1:2 magnification is a key spec: the Micro-Nikkor 105mm Ai-S does not achieve 1:1 (life-size) without extension — the PN-11 tube extends to approximately 1:0.88. This differs from later AF-S Micro Nikkor 105mm versions that achieve 1:1 natively. The CRC floating element design maintains optical performance across the full focus range from infinity to MFD.

On the used market the Nikon Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 Ai-S is affordable as a manual-focus medium-telephoto macro prime. Condition checks: manual focus ring smoothness, aperture blade condition (oil common on vintage lenses), 52mm front element for marks. Native 1:2 max — 1:1 requires PN-11 tube. Manual focus only. Compatible with all Nikon F-mount FX and DX bodies.
