<p>[QUOTE="messydesk, post: 4524676, member: 1765"]In that case, I'd recommend the manual focus AI-s lens. The auto-focus without the VR is sort of a white elephant of 105 Micro-Nikkors. It is bulkier and doesn't auto-focus very fast, and for macro you usually want manual focus, anyway. The only drawback is that you won't have the meter on the D5200, but you don't really need it, since you'll be looking at the exposure on the actual images.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
