Great for closeups
With the auto stabilization and micro feature, this is my preferred lens for closeups of flowers, etc.

Great Lens
I have only had this lens for a very short time and have used it only a little so far; but I am very impressed with the quick focus, silent motor and sharpness of this lens. The vibration reduction is great for hand held shots

Great glass!!
They always say to get the best glass you can afford...well I did just that with this lens! I was in the market for a great portrait lens and something to take some macro shots. I had to decide which lens to get...well I got the 1 lens that can do both with super results! Great bokeh and VR is a wonderful bonus!

What a beautiful lens.
I've had the chance to shoot with this lens for a couple of years now. It was lent to me but I liked it so much I bought it. I use it to shoot Macro flowers and insects and I love the Bokeh this lens has. Most of my initial shots were hand held and this lens did not have VRII! In my opinion this lens or the VR version is a must have in your Nikkor arsenal. Here is a shot I took with this lens and even though it's an oldie it is sure a goldie!

Cleanist lens I've ever used
My wife's a fine artist. Her monotypes work is very subtile abstract and up until the point when I purchased the 105mm Nikor lens, could not be photographed. We tried professional, studio photographers, Industrial Scanning equipment, contact prints all with very little success. However, the 105mm Nikor has the abilbity to capture the print's essessence and color EVERY time! Unbelieveable!!! I have several other Nikor lenses, but nothing else even comes close to the 105mm performance.

Awesome lens
Whether your taking close-up or portrait shots this lens does it all. Not too heavy, well balanced, easy to use.

Multi-Purpose Micro
I've been using some version of this lens for 30 years and admire its sharpness and contrast. This lens is always in my bag. Unlike many macro lenses, its bokeh is creamy smooth, making it great for pictorial and portrait work. Its images are razor sharp and smooth. If you can have only one medium tele-photo in your kit, this is the one to grab.

Incredible lens!
Having used this lens for micro work but also portrait and landscape (yep!), I can say this is one of the finest lenses ever made. The quality of the background, soft and creamy, when I have chosen a shallow depth of field and selective focus has drawn many compliments. The clarity of the subject that is in focus with its natural gradation to the parts that are out-of-focus cannot be duplicated with software!

Great lens, market niche?
Handheld macro? I doubt that this concept has much appeal for a working professional, but it does have an appeals to others. This lens produces great images with excellent bokeh. My standard is can it produce professional results? Definitely!! It might be too expensive for many amateurs.
