Is the nikon af s dx micro 40mm f 2 8g worth it?

The site's verdict is that it's a cheap DX macro lens, and that's a fair reason to like it. At 40mm on an APS-C body it frames like a 60mm on full frame, and f/2.8 gives about the depth of field of f/4.2 there, which suits close-up and detail work.

It's best on an APS-C camera. On a full-frame Nikon F body it still works, but only in APS-C crop mode, so you lose resolution. If you're shopping for a body to pair with it, a budget DX camera such as the Nikon D3500 or Nikon D5600 is a sensible start. For more control, the Nikon D7500 is the stronger APS-C option. Before you commit to full frame, read whether full frame is worth it.
