Amongst the macro lenses that I have tried, the Nikon 105mm f2.8 VRI has the faster and quieter AF. Macro lenses do hunt every now and then especially if you are using multi-focus point.   For the more serious macro photographers, they normally use a tripod and use manual focus to get the sharpest results possible. I am definitely not disappointed with it as long as we know it's limitation just like with any other lenses and cameras.For the $900 fund that you have, I think you might be happy with a Nikon 17-55mm f2.8 to match it with your DX camera.</blockquote>
