[QUOTE="Ironwood, post: 544286, member: 10447"] I think they pop because the lighting is right mainly, but I think the 105mm lens benefits from the CPL. The Nikkor 55 seems to give me good results without the cpl, you can see some images in this thread, all the macro insect shots are using the 55mm lens, [url]http://nikonites.com/project-52-s/34650-ironwoods-52-backyard-critters-2016-a.html#axzz4408w1kpg[/url] I think you can get any camera/ lens combo to work for you, you just have to work on your technique, lighting is the key.
