New gear

[goooner]

Finally got my 'Nikon' macro lens I was yearning for since I switched brands. It's the new Tamron 90/2.8. Tuned it yesterday with the dock, and went out to snap a few pics. Think they came out well enough, lack of sharpness probably user error. As always C&C more than welcome.

I've used a older Tamron 90mm AF-SP macro for 15 years or so--still a fine lens, and the 90mm focal length is nice. Thanks for posting some of your Day 1 shots!

Thanks for taking the time to comment. Think I'm going to like this lens.

Congrats on the new lens. IQ looks great. Think you'll like it too. I recently picked up a used one.

Nice lens. I think the sharpness is fine. I am not overly concerned with sharpness in a dedicated macro lens. For me, it's more about learning about how it renders to maximize the creative output. You got a keeper there and I like how you keenly explored on day one.

Thanks JC. Hope to get to your level one day.
