Are Trumps tariffs affecting lens prices?

[Lindy]

I've been looking at a lens (NIKKOR Z MC 105mm f/2.8 VR S Macro Lens) and was getting ready to pull the trigger on it. Yikes! It jumped up over $200 in price overnight! Is this a result of the tariffs?

Nikon was running discount pricing in March. I expect the Z105mm was included, and $200 sounds about right compared to past years.

Yep, $1050 has been it's regular, not on sale, price for years. The sale price they had it in March was the lowest price I've seen it.

BTW, it's an excellent lens, IMO.

FWIW, there are still a few left offered at the sale price to be found on Amazon.

as of today, Used Photo Pro (Roberts Camera) has a used Z 105 for $708, with box, excellent condition. I have purchased several items from them throughout the years, and have always been 110% pleased with their ratings, quick delivery times, hassle-free returns. Google: "UsedPhotoPro discount codes" and a 5% discount code will pop-up. apply the code during check-out.

*the lens is beefier and heavier than you might expect.
