    Nikon D600 / D610 Official Users thread - Anything D6x0 related

    Took the plunge and ordered a D600 + 24-70 nikkor. Upgraded from a D90 with 18-105mm kit lens. Hopefully should see a nice improvement. Wish me luck, here's hoping I don't have too many oil/dust issues. :)

    Nikon Micro 60mm vs Micro 105mm 2.8 Macro??

    Nice pics ecniv, especially like the album cover :) Im inclined towards the 105mm the feedback on here seems positive, and I think the length would serve better for potraits, especially since I already have the 50mm 1.8 lens. Hopefully I can pop into a camera store and try it out

    Nikon Micro 60mm vs Micro 105mm 2.8 Macro??

    Thanks Cagey :) I think I will stick to the 105mm :) Incidently how much do these typically go for second hand? If I go for the d800 then I'll probably buy the 24-70mm 2.8 first, then the 105mm Macro. If I go for the D600, I'll get it with the kit lens and the 105mm Macro.... Decisions...

    Nikon D800......

    Thanks will look into that flash. First thing I need to do is decide on the body. Then purchase the 24-70 2.8. Then the macro lens :). Probably end up asking loads of noob question in the next month or so once I'm ready to part with the cash /)

    Nikon D800......

    Thanks mate. Macro photography really appeals to me and is something I wanna to take up this year. Not sure if I'll be able to buy one of those special flashes tho, but I do have a sb800. So maybe I can make that work for me. I'm currently using the D90, and looking to upgrade to FX, d600 or...

    Nikon 105mm Macro or Tamron 90mm Macro + Kenko Extension Tubes?

    I know the Nikkor is meant to be a better lens, but the Tamron does also get very good reviews, so it is a major dilema. Jser I cant find your post, I tried searching
