Hi,
I'm looking to buy my girlfriend a macro lens for her Nikon DSLR for Christmas.
She's a keen amateur photographer with some limited experience in macro work, whereas I'm a complete photographic know nothing!
I've been looking at the Nikon 60mm f/2.8G ED AF-S Micro-Nikkor Lens (based on amazon reviews alone) - which seems a good fit, but I don't want to buy her something which isn't a high enough spec only to have her want to upgrade in a few months time.
Any thoughts? If anyone could give me an idea as to if I'm at least buying a good lens for a serious photogpraher or need to look higher (or maybe Im spending too much $$$ and I could get a cheaper option! ) I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks a lot
