[QUOTE="PLM, post: 751944, member: 49082"] This has turned out to be much more informative than I had originally intended when I asked about one particular lens. I had no idea there were so many alternatives to choose from. When Hark mentioned the close up filters, it reminded me of my old photography days when I had experimented with those filters. I wish I could recall what I felt about the results. Considering what I have learned from you very helpful folks, I'm seriously considering the lens Hark mentioned owning, the Nikon 105mm f2.8 micro. It's more money than I had intended to spend, but if I understand this correctly, used with my DX camera, it would be the equivalent of a 157.5mm. That means it would give me a telephoto lens to go with my kit lens. Before I spring for it though, I'm going to explore some of the other macro lenses. I would have done that already, but I was without Internet service yesterday, except for very brief periods, using my phone's hotspot. Again, I appreciate everyone's input and helpfulness, thank you!
