[QUOTE="piperbarb, post: 220134, member: 12214"] I agree with Sam, don't get rid of those lenses. When you get your new camera body, no doubt, you'll regret not having the correct lens if you get rid of any of those. If you really think you need to get rid of any of those lenses, I would suggest keeping the 105mm. If you have another macro lens, then it might be okay, but it is always good to keep a macro lens in your collection. You may not use it very often, but when you really do need it you will kick yourself if you don't have it. It's one of those corollaries of Murphy's Law: you never have the correct lens when you need it. :) I have a couple of lenses I do not use often, but have kept them anyway, and have been glad I did. I seriously contemplated selling the f/2 35mm AF Nikkor lens because I figured I had the 18-55 mm AF zoom. A couple of times I needed the faster wide angle lens, and was glad I never parted with the f/2 35mm. [/QUOTE]
