I really need to reshoot this one: [ATTACH]
You made two claims. One was false. That makes the word "coupled" meaningless. So I misunderstood nothing. "I could not find this model...
Exact quote: "The first macro lens I purchased for photographing coins was a 105mm AFS Micro-Nikkor, and I quickly found it unsuitable due to...
True, but not as much as claimed. Hence it's an exaggeration. At 1:1, you will have virtually the same working distance with either Nikkor as...
First you claimed that the 105mm VR was "unusable" because you could do lighting setups with a bellows that you can't with the 105mm VR. And now...

In other words, you can't or won't post such a shot. And didn't you say you prefer not to use a setup which places a light between the lens and a...

Disclaimer: I am by no means a photo pro, but I do play with a lot of macro gear. All of the coins I've posted here are my own photographs....

I'm not sure it's subject to the HPA. I don't think my copy from the Cato Institute is stamped either.
You should be able to find a used Canon 60mm f/2.8 EF-S Macro for that sort of money. Since your using a 1.6x crop factor camera, the working...
