    You know Nikon licenses that technology from Canon, right?

    I'll stir back... has nothing to do with this thread, you don't mind do you? :D

    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.
