[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 220715, member: 9240"] Asking for a single lens to do both is a stretch unless you plan on shooting your landscapes from a distance. Magnification is your friend with macro photography, so you're usually going to want something in the 85-135mm range, and with the DX sensor an 85 or 105 will likely work best. The good news is that your 17-50mm Tamron should already cover you for most landscapes. With the smaller sensor there are times I can see how you might want something a little wider, but you should be able to live with the wide end of that lens. [/QUOTE]
