Nikon 45mm f/2.8D ED PC-E Micro Nikkor Lens
Perfect for architectural, nature, and commercial photography, the Nikon 45mm, f/2.8D lens lets you control the perspective more than with other lenses, with the ability to tilt, shift, and rotate while you shoot. The lens offers a wide shifting range--plus or minus 11.5mm--with a tilting range of plus or minus 8.5 degrees to provide exceptional perspective control. In addition, the lens revolves plus or minus 90 degrees in 30-degree increments, providing versatile tilt/shift shooting effects. As a result, you can enjoy all kinds of distorted perspectives and unique angles, giving your shots extra life.The lens is built using Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements, which offer superior sharpness and color correction by effectively minimizing chromatic aberration. Nikon's Nano Crystal Coat, meanwhile, virtually eliminates internal reflections across a wide range of wavelengths to produce even greater image clarity. Other details include a high-performance Nikon Super Integrated Coating (SIC), which offers superior color performance and substantially reduced ghosting and flare; an auto-aperture control with an electromagnetic diaphragm (requires Nikon D3, D700, or D300 D-SLR camera); and a rounded nine-blade diaphragm that produces a more natural appearance for out-of-focus image elements.Technical SpecificationsFocal length: 45mmMaximum aperture: f/2.8Minimum aperture: f/32Autofocus: NoAF-S (Silent Wave Motor): NoCompatible formats: FX, DX, FX in DX crop mode, 35mm filmDistance information: YesED glass elements: YesSuper Integrated Coating (SIC): YesNano Crystal Coat: YesMinimum focus distance: 0.83 feetAngle of view: 51 degreesLens (elements): 9ED (elements): 1Lens (groups): 8Maximum reproduction ratio: 1:2Mount type: Nikon F-BayonetFilter type: Screw onFilter size: 77mmLens attachment size: 77mmLens case: CL-1120 flexible lens pouchLens hood: HB-43 bayonet hoodDimensions: 3.2-inch diameter, 4.4 inches longWeight: 26.1 ouncesSupplied accessories: HB-43 bayonet hood, CL-1120 flexible lens pouch, LF-1 rear lens cap, LC-77 snap-on front lens cap
