Tamron SP AF 60mm f2 Di II LD (IF) Macro Lens - Nikon Fit

5 Year Warranty. Tamron's 60mm Macro Lens has been designed specifically for DSLRs with an APS-C sized sensor and is the first lens of this type with a maximum aperture of f/2. The lens can be used as close as 10cm away from the subject and, thanks to its internal focus mechanism, the front element does not move when focusing, so it is less likely to scare away the more flighty of macro subjects. The f/2 aperture gives a beautifully shallow depth of field and out of focus areas appear naturally soft. This characteristic combined with an equivalent focal length of 93mm means that the Tamron 60mm Macro also makes an excellent portrait lens. With 1:1 life-size reproduction opening up whole new worlds of photography, the Tamron SP AF 60mm f2 Di II LD (IF) Macro will be a welcome addition to any photographer's camera bag.  More

Tamron SP AF 60mm f2 Di II LD (IF) Macro Lens - Nikon Fit Further Details

Macro lenses

Macro lenses are interchangeable lenses that have been specially designed for close-up photography. With a macro lens, even a small object can be photographed at a size that fills the whole image area. Macro lenses can be used for nature photography, such as plants and insects. They can also be used for close-up photography of familiar items such as jewellery and other small objects.

Notes:

Life-size, or 1:1 reproduction, means that the lens is able to project onto the image sensor (which corresponds to film in a film camera) an image of an object that is the same size as the object itself.

Di II lenses are designed exclusively for use with digital SLR cameras equipped with APS-C size image sensors and employ an optical system optimized for the characteristics of those digital cameras. Di II lenses are not designed for use with 35mm film cameras or digital SLR cameras with image sensors larger than 24 x 16mm.

    Comments about Tamron SP AF 60mm f2 Di II LD (IF) Macro Lens - Nikon Fit:

    I looked at the Nikon 105mm vr and the Nikon 60mm and the cost, then i saw the new Tamron 60mm F2 i have had the 90mm in the past and it was good but not has good as the 60mm the 60mm never changes it's length when focusing it is good in auto focus in most situations but i usuly use manual focus when shooting macro while on the subject of manual focus you just move the switch that is on the side from auto to manual and you have no changing to do on camera, the only other thing i can say it is brill and if that is the size of lens you are looking for then get one borought and start using it.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
