Howdy everyone.. I am looking for 2 lenses, a Macro and an Ultrawide... I am likely purchasing used/refurb and though my prioritywould be the Ultra I have stumbled on a couple available Macro's.. so limiting this to Macro...
I am going to spend some time looking at reviews, but was curious if anyone had any 1st hand experience (good or bad). I have been following other threads here and it appears that for insects, longer is better so I am staying away from 40 or 60mm
I found a Sigma 105mm f/2.8 EX DG Medium Telephoto Macro Lens (it is an older version (no longer made and the newer is way rich for me.
Also found a Nikon 85mm f/3.5G AF-S DX ED VR Micro. This is a year old little use.
If any one has experience with these, please holler.. Obviously the Sigma is less $$ and is a 105.. Do not know much about it but going to do some research.
