[QUOTE="aroy, post: 263582, member: 16090"] Even I think that for shooting outside studio longer focal lengths give you more space to shoot. 105mm is a very versatile lens. Another thing is that most of macro shoots need manual focusing to get it just right and AF does not help, so get a MF lense for macros. I got the 105mm F2.8 AIS MF lense from KEH and it is excellent - robust build, excellent optics and no electronics to go bad. That lense coupled with a few non-AF extension tubes (which are quite inexpensive) will get you macros from 1:1 to 10:1 with plenty of working space between the lense and the object. [/QUOTE]
