[QUOTE="aroy, post: 364891, member: 16090"] Start with RAW today. Download Nikon Capture NX-D and install it. It is free and pretty comprehensive for RAW processing. Regarding Macro lense. It depends what you want to shoot. . 60mm if you want to do technical reproduction. The lense is sharp end to end and distortion is easily corrected. It is also a great lense for digitizing older slides and film. The only down side is the short distance from the object to lens front, which may spook the bugs. Best for flowers, coins and relatively static objects. . 90mm Tamron or 105mm Nikon is best all round macro as the object to lens front is more than 60mm, so you spook the bugs less. These lenses may have a hint of CA, which may show up at the edges at high F stops. . 200mm Nikon is the ultimate macro as it lets you be far away from the bugs. All macro lenses can shoot at 1:1, just the front element to object distance varies. Another accessory that you may want is the Nikon Close up light set R1C1. There are two versions - with and without the wireless commander. If you have body without commander mode - D3xxx or D5xxx, then you need the commander module, else for other bodies get it without commander [url=http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Flashes/R1C1-Wireless-Close-Up-Speedlight-System.html]R1C1 Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System from Nikon[/url] [url=http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Flashes/R1-Wireless-Close-Up-Speedlight-System.html]R1 Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System from Nikon[/url] [/QUOTE]
