Is the Nikon 60mm 2.8 micro D lens worth more than the 24- 85 3.5 vr afs Nikon lens.I was thinking of selling my afs lens for the60mm D lens, do you guys think it is a good trade off or just keep the afs lens. The bottom line is what lens is worth more. Thanks Jim Bianco
Hey Jim, why not go on-line to see what these lens sell for locally or check your camera stores?
Cheers!

If you want the macro capability go with the Nikon 105G.
Unless you're shooting on a copy stand, then you'll want the shorter lens.

Well, I'm not a commercial photographer and I do find my Nikon AF Micro-NIKKOR 60mm f/2.8D Lens very useful on my D750 FX camera.

There are two ways to judge lens worth. One is to check prices at various sources. The other is to decide what a lens is worth to an individual. I may gladly pay twice what the usual market price is for an item I really want. I may not pay even half the usual price for something I don't want much. Each potential buyer will have a different sense of what a particular lens is worth to him, or her. Check various sources to see what the items are selling for elsewhere. Then try to sell to someone at such prices, or more, or less, as you feel you can. If I already have an 80mm macro lens, a 60mm macro may not interest me much. If I have no macro lens, yet, a 60mm macro may be just what I want. Try selling at one price. If you get no buyers, lower the price a bit. Try selling at camera clubs, online, at college campuses, etc. Consider trading the lenses you have in on lenses you want to buy.

The 60mm is "better" in some ways....being a Prime lens, with a wider aperture, and being a macro lens. The zoom is "better" in other ways....for someone who wants several focal lengths in one convenient lens. It is all a matter of personal tastes. You, or your potential customers, will have to decide for yourselves.
