Touching the internal parts of the camera or lens could result in injury. Repairs should
be performed only by qualified technicians. Should the camera or lens break open as
the result of a fall or other accident, take the product to a Nikon-authorized service
representative for inspection after unplugging the product and/or removing the
battery.
Turn off immediately in the event of malfunction
Should you notice smoke or an unusual smell coming from the camera or lens, remove
the battery immediately, taking care to avoid burns. Continued operation could result
in injury. After removing or disconnecting the power source, take the equipment to a
Ni kon-a uthorized service representative for inspection.
Do not use the camera or lens in the presence of flammable gas
If the electronic equipment is operated in the presence of flammable gas, it could
result in an explosion or a fire.
Do not look at the sun through the lens or viewfinder
Viewing the sun or other strong light sources through the lens or viewfinder could
cause permanent visual impairment.
Keep out of reach of children
Particular care should be taken to prevent infants from putting the batteries or other
small parts into their mouths.
Observe the following precautions when handling the camera and
lens
• Keep the camera or lens unit dry. Failure to do so could result in a fire or electric
shock.
• Do not handle or touch the unit with wet hands. Failure to do so could result in
electric shock.
• In backlit shooting, keep the sun well out of the frame.
The sunlight could focus into the lens body and cause a fire. When the sun gets
close to the frame, it can also cause a fire.
• When the lens will not be used for a long time, attach both front and rear lens caps
and store the lens away from direct sunlight. Failure to do so could result in a fire, as
the lens might focus sunlight onto an object.

1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor 1 05mm f/2.8G IF-ED lens. This is
a high-performance Micro lens featuring special Vibration Reduction (VR II ) and high-
speed Internal Focusing (IF) mechanisms. It also employs a Silent (S) Wave Motor to
drive the focusing mechanism .
•Major features
• At infinity (00) to 1 /30x reproduction ratio, pictures can be taken at shutter speeds
approx. 4 stops * slower than is possible without using a VR II lens, thus expanding
the range of usable shutter speed options and making shooting without a tripod
much easier. (*Under Nikon measurement conditions. The effects of vibration
reduction vary depending on individual and shooting conditions.)
• Panning is also possible, as the lens automatically distinguishes panning from
camera shake and vibration reduction works effectively.
• Autofocus (A) or manual (M) mode can easily be selected with the Focus mode
switch.
• Autofocusing with manual override is provided, allowing instant change from
autofocusing to manual focusing.
• More accurate exposure control is possible when this is mounted on a Nikon camera
having 3D Matrix Metering capability, because subject distance information is
transferred from the lens to the camera body.
• The use of an ED (extra-low dispersion) lens element ensures sharp pictures virtually
free of color fringing. Also, by utilizing a 9-blade diaphragm that produces a nearly
circular aperture, out-of-focus images in front of or behind the subject are rendered
as pleasing blurs.
• The Nano Crystal Coat deposited on some of the lens elements ensures that fine,
clear images can be reproduced under any shooting conditions, from the sunny
outdoors to spotlighted interior scenes.
• The closest focusing distance possible is O.314m (1 ft.)
.Important
• Be careful not to soil or damage the CPU contacts @.
• AF-I/AF-S Teleconverters TC-14E/TC-14EII/TC-17EII/TC-20E/ TC-20EII can be used.
(VR and AE functions are available. Autofocus operation is not possible.)
• With the TC-20E/TC-20EII attached, minimum aperture is limited to within f/90.
• When mounted on Nikon digital SLR (Nikon OX format) cameras, such as the
D2-Series and 0300, the lens' picture angle becomes 15°20' and its 35mm
equivalent focal length is approx. 157. 5mm.
18

•If the lens mount rubber gasket ® is damaged, be sure to visit the nearest Nikon
authorized dealer or service center for repair.
• Atotal of four Wireless Remote Speedlights SB-R200 can be attached to the front of
the lens.

Strength of vibration
.The effects of vibration reduction
• When the subject is from infinity (00) to approx. 3m (9.8 ft.) away (at 1/30x
reproduction ratio), pictures can be taken at shutter speeds approx. 4 stops* slower
than is possible without using a VR II lens. As the reproduction ratio increases from
1/30x, the effects of vibration reduction gradually decrease. (*Under Nikon
measurement conditions. The effects of vibration reduction vary depending on
individual and shooting conditions.)
• Setting the vibration reduction ON/OFF switch
1 Set the Vibration reduction ON/OFF switch @ to [ON].
Note: Be sure to set the switch so that the indicator aligns with
[ON] precisely.
2 Vibration is reduced when the shutter release button is lightly
pressed. Because vibration is reduced in the viewfinder,
auto/manual focusing and exact framing of the subject are
made easier.
3 To cancel the vibration reduction mode, set the Vibration
reduction ON/OFF switch @ to [OFF].
• Notes on using vibration reduction mode
• Wait until the image in the viewfinder stops vibrating before fully depressing the
shutter release button after you have lightly pressed the shutter release button.
• If you move the camera in a wide arc when panning, vibration in the direction of
that movement is not affected. For example, if you pan the camera horizontally, only
vibration in the vertical direction is reduced, making smooth pans much easier.
20

• Due to the characteristics of the vibration reduction mechanism, the image in the
viewfinder may become slightly blurred after releasing the shutter. This is not a
ma
If un ct ion.
• Do not turn the camera power OFF or remove the lens from the camera while the
vibration reduction mode is in operation. (Otherwise, the lens may emit a chattering
noise if the camera is shaken. This is not a malfunction. Turn the camera power ON
again to correct this.)
• With F80-Series/N80-Series, F75-Series/N75-Series, F65-Series/N65-Series, D700,
D300, D200, D 100, D90, D80, D70-Series, D60, D50 and D40-Series cameras
featuring abuilt-in flash, vibration reduction does not work while the built-in flash is
recycl ing.
• When the lens is mounted on a tripod, set the vibration reduction ON/OFF switch ©
to [OFF]. However, set the switch to [ON] when using a tripod without securing the
tripod head, or when using a monopod.
• With AF cameras featuring an AF start (AF-ON) button, such as D3-Series, D300 and F6
models, vibration reduction will not operate even if the AF-ON button is depressed.
4. Depth of field
The depth-of-field indicators @ are engraved beside the distance index line @. At
close distances, however, so little is in focus that it may be better to check the depth
of field table (on page 102). If your camera has a depth of field preview button or
lever, use it to check the depth of field in the viewfinder.
5. Focusing at a predetermined reproduction ratio
The reproduction ratio is the relation between the size of the image recorded on film
and the actual subject size. I( for example, the image on the focusing screen is one-
fifth the actual subject size, the reproduction ratio is 1 :5.
To photograph at a predetermined reproduction ratio, use the following procedure:
1 Manually turn the focus ring until the desired reproduction ratio scale @ number is
aligned with the distance index line @.
2 Aim at the subject, then change your position, moving closer to or farther away from
the subject until the image in the viewfinder sharpens.
To obtain the appropriate reproduction ratio for each focused distance, see the table
on page 102.

6. Notes on close-up photography and duplication work
Camera shake
The AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor 1 OSmm f/2.8G IF-ED provides such exceptionally high
image magnification that even the slightest movement during shooting can cause the
image to blur. Be sure to mount the camera on a tripod and use a cable release or
remote cord to release the shutter.
Close working distance
At the high reproduction ratios used in close-up shooting, the depth of field is very
shallow. To ensure greater depth of field, stop down the lens, then carefully position
the camera to ensure the most important surface of the subject is in the same zone of
sharp focus.
• Use manual focus when using the close-up lens.

7. Exposure factor
The f-number of a lens indicates brightness of the image formed by the lens set at
"infinity" shooting distance. The higher the reproduction ratio is, the more the
brightness of the image will decrease. The actual brightness of the image is called the
"effective f-number," and the exposure compensation value for the change of the
effective f-number is called the II exposure factor."
8. Effective f-number variation (P. 100)
With this lens, the higher the reproduction ratio is, the more the brightness of the
image on the film (image sensing device) will decrease and the effective f-number will
increase (the amount of light that comes through the lens' aperture will decrease).
This variation is automatically compensated for by the camera's exposure meter, so
the user can determine exposure or operate TTL flash shooting without having to
consider the exposure factor.
The f-number displayed in the camera's LCD panel or viewfinder is the value
automatically compensated.
22

9. Setting the aperture
Set the aperture on the camera body. When exposure (or shooting) mode is set at II A"
(Aperture Priority auto) or II M II (manual), the camera will control to maintain the
predetermined f-number (up to approx. 1.6 stops) as the effective f-number varies
with shooting distance.
10. Using bayonet hood HB-38

selected even when the required compensation value is "0" (no compensation
required). For FS cameras, compensate using Custom Setting #18 on the camera
body. For F4-Series cameras, compensate using the Exposure Compensation Dial
for the focusing screen.
See instruction manual of the camera body for more details.
Blank box means not applicable. Since type M screen can be used for both macro-
photography at a 1: 1 magnification ratio and for photomicrography, it has different
applications than other screens.
• When using the Band E focusing screens in cameras other than those listed above,
refer to the columns for the Band E screens.
13. Lens care
• Clean the lens surfaces with a blower brush. To remove dirt and smudges, use a
soft, clean cotton cloth or lens tissue moistened with ethanol (alcohol) or lens
cleaner. Wipe in a circular motion from center to outer edge, taking care not to leave
traces or touch other parts of the lens.
• Never use thinner or benzene to clean the lens as this might damage it, result in a
fire, or cause health problems.
24

• To protect the front lens element, an NC filter is available. A lens hood CD also helps
protect the front of the lens.
• When storing the lens in its lens case, attach both front and rear caps.
• When the lens will not be used for a long time, store it in a cool, dry place to
prevent mold. Also store the lens away from direct sunlight or chemicals such as
camphor or naphthalene.
• Do not get water on the lens or drop it in water as this will cause it to rust and
malfunction.
• Reinforced plastic is used for certain parts of the lens. To avoid damage, never leave
the lens in an excessively hot place.
