I have the 100mm L series, the autofocus on that lens, for Macro shots, is a life saver, unbelievably quick and sharp. I found sitting in a field of wild flowers, in Valley Forge State Park, waiting for that bee or butterfly to land on the flower I was focused on so much more rewarding than the sidelines of a football game that I just purchased the Canon MPE-65. Loved the posted shots.

Glad your ok. Was wondering if you happened to get a couple of shots before you got to the bottom?

11th annual top most dangerous cities Us, #! Camden #2 Detroit #3 Atlanta #4 St. Louis #5Gary Ind. By population 75,000 to 99,999 Camden #1, Trenton & Reading in top 10.

Always near the top of "Ten most dangerous cities in America"

If you are going to shoot in Camden at night, on the waterfront, take a gun along with your camera. You will get to shoot both.

You must have missed the word"TRULY". If you want the best Macro lens, and the most amazing Macro shots. You would "Obviously" have to switch to Canon!! Otherwise "Google" best Nikon Macro Lenses.

If you truly want to focus on Macro, the Canon MPE 65 is the best way to go. One to One & Five to One magnification. Manual focus only disadvantage. A truly dedicated lens.
