Hey justoneartist. Thanks a million. I use the Nikon 105mm f2.8 VR lens and I absolutely love it. It was an upgrade to the older "D" version, and while it's nice to have the VR occasionally for portraits, I have to say the older version of the lens is just as sharp at regular macro f stops (ie f16-f32)... also very light, and you can buy it for like 250 bucks!
