It also costs about twice as much as the 85mm which doesn't have VR or do macro. I could work with either lens for portrait work but, if I had my druthers, I'd reach for the 85mm, personally. The 85mm is also an excellent, all-purpose, short-tele in my opinion. I say that without taking anything away from the 105mm Micro, though... I just think you're paying a lot for the macro capability which you don't mention; and if you don't need the macro capability why pay for it?</p></blockquote><p></p>
