[investmenttechnology]

looking for a macro/portrait lens, can 105mm 2.8 micro from Nikon be used as both?

Yes.

Yes. It's a beautifully sharp lens.

Yes, but you need a special license from Nikon to use it for other than its intended purpose.

Do you know how to obtain that license from Nikon? Loooool just joking. You can use your lense for any usage that you want.

105 is a great length for portraits, provided you have the space to get far enough from your subject.

Yeah and I need a speciaal license from Ford to drive my Focus on the forest trail...

I like this. Made me smile. I need to do that more often.

Yep, with portraits it's all about the bokeh.
