[QUOTE="Allen, post: 100479, member: 12299"] Thanks for all the replies; quite a range of suggestions..... @Pierro, While theoretically you are correct, I did borrow a d version of the Nikkor 60 and lots of fun with it. You cannot get even close to 1:1 without a real macro. @Newb, I did look closely (sorry the pun) at the 85, and I would rather have a little more speed (aperture) potential. @Rick, Yeah, that is the dilemma....60, 105 or Tokina 100 or Tamron 90...what are the compromises..... @Piper, @Rick, It does seem that there is some logic if there is doubt, go with a known winner - 105 Nikkor I suppose part of what I am seeking is guidance in the factors of the compromise.....
