[QUOTE="Lawrence, post: 342065, member: 16844"] That sounds like a pretty good budget to me. If you are going to wait for the possibility of a D7200 being launched the price of that will clearly determine what you have to spend on glass. The 18-140mm combo that nikonpup mentions sounds like an excellent idea. I have the 18-105mm on my D5100 and love it. For extra reach I have the 70-300 which is nice but had I been a bit more patient I would definitely have bought something faster and tending toward the 400mm top end. Live and learn but at my age how long can I be patient for? And the 105mm as suggested by Bill seems to be a very popular lens on this forum Macro is not something I have any experience with. Lots of examples and suggestions on here and you aren't in a hurry so look around and ask specific shooters pacific questions. Guys and gals very helpful. [/QUOTE]
