[QUOTE="Jim McClain, post: 351531, member: 31047"] I would like to be able to take closeups of flowers and plants, or other objects that I need to get very close to. I already have 2 decent quality zooms: [URL="http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Camera-Lenses/AF-S-DX-NIKKOR-16-85mm-f%252F3.5-5.6G-ED-VR.html"]AF-S DX NIKKOR 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR[/URL] & [URL="http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Camera-Lenses/AF-S-VR-Zoom-Nikkor-70-300mm-f%252F4.5-5.6G-IF-ED.html"]AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED[/URL], but neither can be used in close quarters. The minimum focus distance for the 16-85 is 1.3', but I think it's more like 1.5'. What prime or zoom lens would you recommend? Thanks, Jim [/QUOTE]
