You know Nikon licenses that technology from Canon, right?

Just stirring those that bite mate Important to remember though...
....canon was 2nd no matter how you colour it in......:jose
I'll stir back... has nothing to do with this thread, you don't mind do you?
I was at the Nikon Small World exhibition (competition for micro imaging), it's here on our campus for the month, with my best friend, shoots Nikon. I asked him which macro lens he'd recommend as we've both been interested in it for a while. I went through the range of Canon lenses including the microscope 65mm lens. He, a staunch Nikonist, admitted that Canon's lens lineup for macro blows Nikon out of the water. He's settled on a Sigma, great lens, but he'd rather have a Nikkor.
Jast sayin, if you like shootin those bugs, it's another thing to consider.
When I shot those Lizards the other day the guy at the zoo loaned me his 60mm Nikkor Micro lense.... wow, that thing was fast focusing and incredibly sharp. 1:1 ratio and all. I gotta get one.
