[QUOTE="fotojack, post: 14419, member: 16"] Seems like the 60 macro is the one to get, John. And it seems like most if not all of your macro interests will be stationary. so no worries about getting too close to the subject. Having said that, if you're eventually going to photograph insects or anything else that's alive, I would suggest you go for a longer lens, such as the 105. I myself use the 85mm macro Nikon lens ( I call it a compromise between the 2 other lenses :) ). Another one I use is the 28-105 with macro switch. Awesome lens for closeups. Anyway...there ya go.....lots of opinions. :) [/QUOTE]
