I have the Nikon Micro 105/2.8 and I try to avoid apertures closer than f/8. "Then there's not enough DoF!". Yes, right, it never is enough DoF and from f/11 the DoF is paid with lower resolution. But there's a cure against that: Have a look at Helicon Focus stack.

 

See also http://www.heliconsoft.com/heliconsoft-p...con-focus/ in case you haven't heard about that possibility. Downsides: Not possible for moving (also breathing) creatures or in windy situations outside.
