What is the DC (Defocus Control) system and how does it affect the image?
The DC system allows adjusting the spherical aberration of the lens by rotating a dedicated ring. This modifies the appearance of blur (bokeh) in out-of-focus areas, both in front of and behind the subject. It is especially useful for portraits, as it allows softening the background or foreground creatively.
Is this lens compatible with Nikon cameras without an autofocus motor?
The Nikon AF DC Nikkor 105mm f/2D lens has a built-in autofocus (AF) motor, so it is compatible with most Nikon cameras with F mount, including FX and DX formats. However, on some entry-level cameras, it may be necessary to activate manual focus if they do not have a focus motor in the body.
What type of filters does it accept?
This lens has a filter diameter of 72mm, so you can use filters of that size, such as polarizers, ND, or protective filters.
What is the minimum focusing distance and the weight of the lens?
The minimum focusing distance is 0.9 meters, allowing you to get relatively close to the subject. The weight of the lens is 620 grams, making it manageable for extended sessions.
