Customer Review: My favorite macro
First off, I am not a professional photographer. I know little about MTF charts like the esteemed and clearly knowledgeable Mr. Kwok, who wrote the first review here. However, I love photography, especially the macro variety which I engage in both for personal enjoyment and some product work for my small online business. My macro lens experience runs from the newest Nikon 105mm f2.8 VR lens, Nikon 105mm f4 micro, the Sigma 150mm f2.8, Nikon 60mm micro, lester a dines 105mm, Nikon 85mm PC, Vivitar Series 1. I have a Canon 20D, so I have also used their famous 100mm macro, and the 65MM MP-E lens. So I’ve used a lot of them, generally for brief periods. Like a lot of people, I am always looking for something a little better, the next newest thing that will make me a better photographer.
