My MP3 player and some Ralph Lauren Silver. Still playing with my 60mm Nikon Micro lens :D

All handheld snapshots...spent less than 5 minutes on these....just picked up the stuff and snapped. I think I know what I've been missing now...GOOD GLASS! I'm in love with this lens. I need to force myself to quit buying less expensive/lesser quality lenses. This 60mm rocks.

    Great shots- lovely series. Nice thing about macro lenses is that they all seem to be excellent optically from the major manufacturers, just varying in AF speed/type (not that you should be using AF for macro shots).
    Is the Nikon 60mm similar to the canon - ie only fits APS-C cameras (1.6 crop) ?

    This lens is not for digital only cameras. I'm not an expert on all the lens specs...but this one is not one of Nikon's DX (digital only) lenses. So I assume that makes this 60mm lens a little longer on a digital body.

    If the info I'm finding is correct, this lens was introduced back in 1993.
