It is a nice lens. Apparently not enough of us Nikon users will A) pay the money needed or B.) are not interested enough to warrant such a lens. While it is nice to be able to do that, I am not really into macro shooting at this time.

Nice lens and nice shots though !

But you must remember, that with this lens you will need two macrolenses for shooting i.e mantids. As you won't get far enough away from a medium sizes mantid to get a full body shot with this lens.

yes very true.but for peeps that want to go past 1:1 this lens is for u

i use to have nikon..i was stricky nikon..untill i wanted to go past 1:1 and found out all nikon do is bellows..i bought the nikon bellows..it wasnt cheape..i got some good shots..but not as good as the mpe-65 cause i can use the flash on ttl mode..tbh for most a normal fixed 100mm macro lens is good enough..i just wanted to get closer. :rolleyes:
