[QUOTE="steptoe, post: 249104, member: 8928"] It looks like the Tamron 90mm is going to be the choice, unless I can get a Sigma 105mm for the same price or cheaper Now I know both can be used for portrait work, other than macro, but which is the better option. Go for one with AF-S and some kind of VR/VC, or a manual focus with no AF-S VR/VC The Tamron 90mm macro with built-in motor is available quite easily, but using a D3100 without motor drive means I lose auto focus until I get that D7100 upgrade at some point (hopefully this year) I can pick-up a good quality 2nd user Tamron 90mm macro 272E lens or earlier model Sigma 105mm macro without AF-S/VR pretty much anywhere for a good price, and much cheaper than new. It won't be a main lens, but will get used fairly frequently while out [/QUOTE]
