[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 444288, member: 14443"] I have the 105VR but its use in weddings is very small. sniping guests and for makeup/prep shots of the bride. I dont use it often and it sits in my bag a lot. I have a PK11A macro tube but its not enough magnification. I had the kenko extension tubes but have no idea where the heck I placed them. but not wanting to fork over $150 for the set again. I wanted something inexpensive that will let me do just a few specific pics I need in weddings. Im not a macro guy but I used to shoot years back. it doesnt really interest me today.
