[QUOTE="JDFlood, post: 123197, member: 11653"] I'll see if I can find some time to pull an example or two. I was thinking about what I said and wanted to reiterate, I struggle a bit with light on the 200m, you can't supplement with the on camera flash (shadow). So you have to pull out all the equipment to use it. You may also notice that my comments are mostly about usability. Reason is, that is most important to me. I do nature photography... In the field, not laboratory stuff. if I can't tell the difference between the lenses. Which I can't, then I pick the most usable. I can't tell because, I have never sat down with all three lenses and shot the same things under the same conditions. Why? I'm interested in photographing stuff and not becoming an equipment comparer.I read all the reviews and concluded the most important difference between them is usability, not output... Unless you are Ming Thein (google him, he knows how to do macro). The big variable in my macro photography, is my skill level... Way bigger than the sharpness of the lenses. If I was into lab stuff, I would have a permanent setup with the 200mm table, lights... Etc. hopefully this is useful. JD [/QUOTE]
