What is the nikon af s vr micro 105mm f 2 8g if ed good for?

The Nikon AF-S VR Micro 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED is a 105mm prime with an f/2.8 maximum aperture, autofocus, and stabilisation. On full frame it frames as a 105mm, a useful step longer than the 85mm I suggest for portraits on my lenses page. On an APS-C body like the D7500 it frames roughly like 158mm, which gives you reach for distant subjects. The stabilisation helps when you shoot handheld in dim light, and the f/2.8 aperture keeps the background soft.

It fits a wide range of Nikon F bodies, from the full-frame D750 and D850 to APS-C models like the D3500 and D5600. Check the lens page for the full list. If you mainly want reach for distant subjects, my wildlife and sport page covers longer options.
