Not sure Bob but how close would you be to your subject with a 24mm lens?
That doesn't sound to bad, you will have to post up some shots to show us how much DOF you get but I suspect it won't be any better than your mp-e 65 at the same magnification.
Sorry for the wait guys...I spend most of my time in a different country to all my gear. I snaffled this up in New Zealand last month.It will be intresting to see the outcome of this Bob.
Look forward to seeing some shots.
Ive had my eye on the Nikon Telephoto PC Micro Nikkor 85mm f/2.8D for a while now. Ive got an idea for insect macrography that I would like to try out with a tilt shift lens. Bank manager will probably tell me to wait a while though.
