For my second (and final) installment of the variety series, I stuck with one lens for a couple days: the increasingly excellent 105mm f/2.8 Micro-Nikkor AI-s. I’ll get to doing the “first” impressions (since I have written a few posts already using this lens) sometime, but for now…photographs!
All of the following captured with the Sony NEX-7:

That’s all for this post guys and gals, I’m starting to see how versatile macro lenses (with relatively large apertures) are in real-world shooting. It’s awesome to know I’m hardly ever limited by my close-focus distance.
As always, have a great day! 🙂
