[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 4608, member: 986"] I attended a Tamron sponsored macro event a couple years ago and was able to use the Tamron 90mm macro. It totally rocks. One thing to consider is that with the 60mm lens you need to get closer to the subject than with a 90 or 105. A fast lens (f2.8) isn't such a big issue as you want a smaller aperture to control depth of field. A macro lens is probably next on my list and personally I'd probably go with the Nikon 85mm micro or the Tamron 90mm. If you are only going to do occasional macro work, you might want to consider the Canon 500D close-up filter. I've seen some amazing results with it. [/QUOTE]
