The Tamron 90 is too close to the Nikkor AF 85mm for me to benefit ....

  However, things move fast in "GAS LAND".........often very fast as here!.......

           .....I've just negotiated 250 euros on what looks like a very good example of the Nikkor AF105 F2.8D micro....apparently in almost perfect condition......(a lens that has eluded me before at the right price)
 
   Solid, sharp with not frills!    ...and Ken Rockwell "waxes lyrically" about it...
 
      .....so it must be good!



   For portrait macro use between 85mm-150mm it should fill the gap nicely.....

    .........but how many times have I said the like before? 


 no emoticons? Well here's a big fat laugh
