I did what research I could on this--apparently the non-D version 105mm f/2.8 AF Micro-Nikkor was made for a few years in the early '90's, then the current D model appeared, is that correct? Any sig. differences between the 2? They seem to go for about the same prices used, around $450, so would it be a mistake to buy the non-D version? I'd be using it with my D-50 for close-ups of small objects. I've also considered a 60mm f/2.8D AF Micro-Nikkor used or new. TIA for any advice!

Remember because of the smaller sensor in digi's a 60 macro becomes a 90mm, and 105 becomes 157.5mm- I love my 60 f2.8 - Joe M 09:26:23 02/27/06 (0)
