Product shooting — effective use of a PC-E NIKKOR lens
D3X + PC-E Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/2.8D using the tilt function
Manual exposure, 1/100 s, f/4.2
D3X + PC-E Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/2.8D without the tilt function
The image on the left was taken by tilting the lens using the tilt mechanism so that the entire
subject is in focus, although the subject plane is not parallel to the camera’s image plane (f/4.2).
With the minimum focus distance of 0.39 m (1.3 ft.), the PC-E Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/2.8D
Perspective Control lens achieves close-up shooting like this.
This picture was taken without
using the tilt functi on. Only a
specific part of the subject on
the image plane is in focus with a
shallow depth of field produced
by f/4.2 aperture.
