According to our camera lens expert
The AF-S DX Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G for your Nikon camera body is a starter model for everyone who wants to get started with macro photography. Nikon added some functions to the lens, which makes it fun to use. You barely have any distortions in your images, and almost no vignetting. The resolution of the images is also very high and you're not bothered by chromatic aberrations. You can also play around with depth of field.

I bought this lens with my D5100 and I am extremely satisfied. It even exceeds my expectations. The results are exceptionally good in both sharpness and bokeh. I use the lens as a macro, portrait and also landscape lens. In all options there is good and beautiful variation with depth of field. The lens continues nicely and you can, as it were, dive into the picture. I bought it because I don't get enough satisfaction, with regard to sharpness and depth of field, from the supplied 18-55 kit lens. It is probably the first purchase in a series of multiple fixed focal lenses. For a lens of this amount you run zero risk of a bad buy.
The attached image is highly compressed due to the maximum allowable size. What I want to show is the sharpness, the depth of field and the beautiful bokeh. In addition, the perfect representation of the blue glow around the flame.

Have had this lens for a while now and am very happy with it. It's my first macro lens I've ever used. Highly recommended for people who want to take beautiful pictures, but don't have a big budget or want to spend it.
I use this for everything, but mainly for my hobby to photograph: aquarium hobby.
Definitely recommended for beginners, to get "professional" looking photos!

The lens hasn't been off my camera since I received it. This relatively cheap macro lens is more than worth its money. Beautiful blur in the background and yet a lot of detail in the subject. What I also think is a very big plus is that you can literally crawl on your subject and can still focus well even at a mm distance. By taking a few meters away, this lens is also very suitable as a portrait lens. Every photo taken with this lens is a picture in itself. I almost no longer need the standard zoom lens that came with my camera.
