Put inexpensive into perspective for us. After purchasing my 70-200, the nikon 105 2.8 for $375 was very "inexpensive".....
Those zooms are not true macro's. You need to looks at primes for macro that will give you the 1:1 ratio or better.Been looking at the following.....
PROMASTER® AF 70-300 F/4- 5.6 LD $199.95
SIGMA 70-300mm 70-300 DG *HSM* Macro lens NIKON D40 US $169.95
im not sure if i need to stay with nikon or can go with others...??? still learning LOTS!!! Thanks.
I think you need to get a dedicated macro if you're gonna get into it seriously. Get a lens that has 1:1 reproduction not 1:2.
What??? !!! WTF? Where? VR? ED? New? I just got one at double that.Put inexpensive into perspective for us. After purchasing my 70-200, the nikon 105 2.8 for $375 was very "inexpensive".....
