I take it that you recommend Nikon then! Welcome to the group. With all that kit do you have a couple of sherpas to carry it for you?
Hello and welcome to shuttertalk Nikonguy
Do you carry all these gears of your when outdoor?
LOL
No I've got a big truck to carry it around
I should have looked at a few other new members posts
The other forums I belong to want you to list your gear maybe I shouldn't have
Hello,
Welcome to the forums! No problem listing your gear. We actually have another thread that asks what gear do you use. We are glad you are here and please make yourself at home!

Just make sure you never show your home address or truck number plate on the Web, or all your gear might disappear!

Welcome, think I will buy a new Lens Cap. Cheers. Ed.
do you have any image with this lens Nikon 60 2.8 Micro you have? Wondering how it goes in comparison with the Tamron 90 mm.

Here is a couple I shot for you
I looked at the Tamron but went with the Nikon I found the Nikon a bit sharper and of course it's a Nikon
Both shot with Nikon D300s to give the 90mm like the tamron at F8
Full image no cropping
Taken with 30 year old, 35mm Tamron 28/200mm Dynax 5D 1/6th @5.6 ISO 400, Tripod used. Ed.

Still looks good
Yes with a good zoom and tripod you can get some nice macro
My best macro was shot with my 300mm at about 15 ft away with some cropping LOL
Have a soft spot for Nikon, owned a few along the way, doubt I will own any more. Ed.

Ya that's better
Different image though
1/125 F 6.3
Have 3, all taken at the same time. I did not realize that I had never made any attempt to post process any of them, was not capable of doing so, at that time. never went back to them. Will see which I posted initially and look at it. Ed.

You see this ones kinda like a blurry eye chart
The other you posted nice and crisp that 28-200 is quite a sharp lens
Difference was, used flash on the best one. Among the first taken on the Minolta camera. Ed.
Nice to see the comparisons here!
