The details

At a glance: Compact 60mm f/2.8 1:1 macro prime - full-frame Nikon, screw-drive AF, mechanical aperture ring.

About this lens

The Nikon AF 60mm f/2.8D Micro Nikkor is a compact macro prime for full-frame and DX Nikon DSLRs. Offering 1:1 life-size reproduction, it has been a staple product, nature, and copy work lens in Nikon's lineup since the D-type update in 1993.

Build & handling

Maximum magnification 1:1 (life-size)
Autofocus Screw-drive AF (requires body with AF motor)
Minimum focus distance 0.219m
Filter thread 62mm
Weight 440g
Aperture ring Yes

Works with

  • Nikon F-mount full-frame (FX) DSLRs with in-body AF motor (D7xxx, D8xx, pro bodies)
  • Nikon film SLRs - the mechanical aperture ring is fully compatible with manual-aperture bodies
  • Nikon DX (APS-C) DSLRs (90mm equivalent - a useful short macro/portrait); entry-level DX bodies will be manual-focus only

Best for

Equally useful for macro subjects (small products, jewellery, insects, document copy) and for portraits or general photography. On a DX body it becomes a 90mm equivalent - a useful short telephoto. Requires a Nikon DSLR with an in-body AF motor for autofocus. Superseded by the 60mm f/2.8G AF-S version in 2008.

Frequently asked questions

Is it true 1:1 macro?

Yes. 1:1 (life-size) maximum magnification at the 0.219m minimum focus distance.

Will it autofocus on entry-level Nikon DSLRs (D3xxx / D5xxx)?

No. This lens uses screw-drive autofocus and requires a Nikon body with an in-body AF motor (D7xxx, D8xx or pro bodies, or older film SLRs). On entry-level bodies it can be used in manual focus only.

  • A proper little treasure trove

    3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
