No photos? c'mon Grun. Lets see a macro shot.

I dont have a macro len$... Only have the standard kit lens right now.

The standard lens is good enough to take a few shots of nekkid Amreekan vimen, right?

Congrats Grun!

I bought the Nikkor 50mm 1.8D today. This photo was taken just after buying it:

1/160, f/8.

For just 90-100$ you get one of the sharpest lenses available today, so go to your nearest shop and buy one, NOW

I'm also thinking about buying the Sigma 70-200 f/2.8, anyone tried one of those?
