Well, the Nikkor 105mm F2.8D micro lens arrives!
Condition: ..... "perfect" just one slight mark on the paint M/A ring...frankly it looks brand new.
The D version had better SIC coatings and was made from 1993-2006...when the VR version was released.
Optically: it's well centered and very sharp...in it's day this lens had an exceptional reputation as being as sharp as anything out there.
AF........here is where I can often tremble......I shot Zelda (my new blonde darling) and bingo it's on the money at all distances with zero AFFT......
Maybe just a case now of swapping the 85mm F1.8D for the G version and I'm done.....
......well that's the theory!
