Nikon Goes Prime With The Micro NIKKOR 40mm f2.8G Lens

A prime lens should be in every shooter's bag and Nikon just announced a new 40mm DX kit. The f/2.8G lens should be perfect as a walk-around lens and weighs just nine ounces. Sure, it lacks zoom, but you'll live. The lens features a minium focusing distance of just 6.4 inches and a 1:1 reproduction ratio when used with HD video. The lens, being one of Nikon's latest, features Nikon's Silent Wave Motor technology, which will keep the lens nearly silent during operation. Don't want to bother that bumblebee during its closeup, do ya?Expect to see the the new 40mm next month at an MSRP of $279.
