[QUOTE="hark, post: 566111, member: 13196"] Both the Sigma and the Nikon would serve well. My biggest concern with non-Nikon lenses is the compatibility issue as Ironwood mentioned--especially with Sigma lenses. The newer Sigma lenses can be connected to a dock to download the latest firmware. Not sure their current macro lens has that capability, so if there ever is a compatibility issue (even with a future Nikon body), the lens would have to be shipped back to Sigma for firmware updates. Any of the macro lenses that have been mentioned would work well. [/QUOTE]
