[QUOTE="hark, post: 751778, member: 13196"] As TwistedThrottle mentioned, something a little longer will allow to you be back further from your subject. There are a few people here who have some type of Tamron 90mm f/2.8 macro lens although there might be more than one available. Personally I have the Nikon 105mm f/2.8 VR which is amazing, and others have the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 OS - and those images also look stellar. I handhold a lot of my macro shots so VR is important to me. If possible, try to choose a macro lens with a 1:1 ratio. That means what you shoot will appear true to size on your sensor. A 1:2 macro lens means the image will appear to be 1/2 its true size on the sensor. [/QUOTE]
