Hi Everybody,
Can anyone help me out with a question about this lens please.
I am in the market for a macro lens (macro is dominating my photography at the moment). I have short listed to the Sigma and the Nikkor micro 105mm VR.
One of the reasons that the Sigma appeals (apart from cost) is that it has a 58mm filter size which makes it perfect for use with my Sigma EM140 ring flash (which came with a 55 and 58mm adapter ring).
Anyway, as this lens is not internal focus is it going to damage the lens to have the ring flash attached when it focuses?
.....or should I stop being tight and go for the Nikon??
Thanks
