[QUOTE="traveler582, post: 299856, member: 23020"] Question from a novice: Will the 200mm get me more magnified pictures than the 105mm? (I couldn't think any other way to say it) I know the 200mm will give me a longer working distance, maybe 10" from subject whereas the 105mm I have to get closer, say 5+/-" to subject, the 200mm being better to not 'spook' insects and lighting being better, less shadows from working closer. But will the 200mm actually get me better magnification than the 105mm? Thanks! And….does anyone know how much Glycerin to add to water for spraying to create drops? The ratio? [/QUOTE]
