Rhododendron Blossom, Up Close

A while back I bought the Nikkor AF-S 40mm f/2.8G DX Micro lens to use on my V2 with FT =1 adapter. I gave it a workout today shooting some of our rhodies, and it performed marvelously, a sharp lens.

Nikon 1 V2 ,Nikon AF-S DX Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G
1/1000s f/8.0 at 40.0mm iso160
Lens used with FT-1 adapter full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

The little 40mm paired nicely with the V1 for a makeshift 105mm macro equivalent.
