Hey Guys!
Nikon os lauching this new Micro 40mm f/2.8 lens for a very nice price! I´m very interested in macro photography and I´m thinking about giving it a try! Have you guys heard anything about it? Do you think it´s worth it compared to other lenses like the 60mm f/2.8?

Thanks!

I know the lens is due but I do not think it is available in the UK yet.
What are you going to use it for, still life? If you are thinking of insects and things like that it will be too small.

As far as comparing to the 60mm that'd depend on what you want out of the lens.
I bought it as a portrait lens that allows me to play with Macro photography which I had never done.
I've shot some flowers etc and am still learning, but I love what the lens has the capability to do, now I have to learn to use all of the capabilities.
