I know I might be quite late for this thread but I had similar problem so I wanted to post for future readers. I would suggest Nikon 40mm f/2.8G lens, for me it did wonders and I was able to took more then thousand great looking close-up photos. It is very sharp and low minimum focusing distance will allow you to get some beautiful photos which is perfect for jewelry and that is what you need. Now there are many other macro lenses that are good and it all depends what budget you have but my advice for anybody who is looking for good quality lens is to check their local lens shop since that is one of the easiest way to see what works best for you. You may also read some online lenses guide, lensespro has good guide about Nikon D5600 lenses but there are many other good sites as well that is just an example.
For the alternative if budget is not a problem I would also recommend Nikon 105mm f/2.8G lens which I use a couple of times and it worked great for me but since I am not that much into macro photography anymore I don't expensive macro lense since I mostly do nature, landscapes etc
I hope my advice helped you and I wish all of you luck in finding the best lens for your favorite camera ...Show more →
There are not many Nikon users here. However, 105mm is good for general macro. I used a Kiron 105 for several years. I don't have a 40mm of any kind, currently using a 50mm, often with a x2 TC. For the higher magnifications (>1:1) I now mostly prefer a 25mm for the wide angle depth perspective, which works well with many of my subjects.
