Hi, I've got a question:

I'm about to buy a macro lens, ( ive a Nikon D3000 ) and want to buy an 105 mm f2.8 EX DG lens, but it doesnt have AF and i need that for my Nikon D3000 ( because its not built in ), but with macro photography you usually use MF right? So what do you think, shall i buy it or do i need a macrolens which has AF function?

Oh and almost forgot , Am I able with 105 mm macro lens to make a picture like this ?
Hope to hear from you soon, ( i love your pics! )

Hey,
Unfortunately extreme magnifications like this cannot be achieved with an ordinary macro lens.
I use manual focus exclusively when doing macro work. If you'd like to do the same, you dont need the AF
Good luck!

I have lens envy... lol Do you use the twin flashes as well or your own rig? Great work too btw!

erezmarom In reply to VileYonderboy [2010-09-10 13:42:10 +0000 UTC]

Thank you,
In the past I used to use the twin flash, but nowadays I don't even take it out of the house, as I haven't used it in over a year.
I only shoot with natural light right now.
