The red is small in the image, but its rule is mighty.

I have wondered, and being asked, many times over the years why the response to the AFS Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 VR  differed so much between the users. Broken expectations alone cannot be the sole explanation. Perhaps there were quaility issues in the production run(s)? Or something inside might get out of alignment. The 24mm f/2 Nikkor had a similar fate. Most of the samples i have tried over the years simply have been awful. However, once in a while I have encountered a really nice performing 24. [I own now one of these myelf -- my third attempt]. Why??

The answer is I don't know.

and the rest is in the trash?

I was looking forward to buying my first macro lens, just about the time Nikon released this version of the lens. I bought it and set about learning how to use it.

Then read Birna's review and got very depressed.

A while later i started using it for general photography too and was stunned at the quality of some of the results.

Here is a subject and configuration that very few people would recommend...but on this occasion seemed to work
D300 105mm VR TC14
