Nice shots!
I don't have a macro lens and use a telephoto lens for bugs. 70-300 typically since I can get close enough.

Thanks! I regularly used an old 75-300 on the D 7200, mostly at 450 equivalent. This lot was at 1050mm equivalent.

👍👍 I use my long lens for such shots - I've tried using my 105 macro but the butterflies and bees usually don't allow me to get that close.
Thanks! I've often been able to get quite close with the 105, depends on the subject. Have gotten good results with an old 75-300 when I need more reach.

Really nice quixdraw. Few realize how versatile a long lens can be. I haven't tried it yet with the 200-500 but a lot of my closeups were shot at the long end of y 70-300.

Thank you! Whatever I use, and my 75-300 was is workhorse as well (450 on the D7200), I have to have sharpness. The 105 really delivers that!
