Excelling at close distances, the AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G from Nikon is a 60mm-equivalent macro prime offering a 1:1 life-size maximum magnification along with a 6.4" minimum focusing distance. Benefitting both close-up shooting as well as working at greater distances, the optical design uses a Close Range Correction system that maintains consistent image quality and sharpness throughout the focusing range.

Q: 6. I want to photograph some antique rifles. Will this lens put me close without making the rifles appear bent?

A: Remember this is a Micro lens - designed for getting REALLY close and holding amazing details (ex: shooting JUST the trigger of your rifles). To answer your question - no I did not see any wide angle bending BUT - it is a 40mm lens. So to fill a shot (horizontally) with lets say a 3' rifle - you will need to get back about 9 feet from the item. Hope this helps.Ray
