Thank you Pete! Do you have a telephoto lens you like for your D7200? I have the 18-300mm lens but it’s super heavy and I usually only use it at the 200-300mm range.
You are welcome, Sandra 🙂 I have a Siama 18-300 mm lens, which is lighter than the 105 mm macro lens. What I like about the 18-300 mm is that it allows me to not only zoom out for the distant shots, but I can also take some macro with it, too, though not as close as the 105 macro. I also have the Nikon 70-300 mm, but I haven’t used it since I bought the 18-300 mm. But I find 300 mm is not really enough, especially for birds. I need to invest in something for further reach, but they probably get heavier still once you go beyond 300 mm.
Thanks Pete. I’m with you, I want more reach than the 300mm but the heft of the lens and the price tag are real limitations. Maybe I’ll look into a rental as a way of test driving one. I’ll let you know if I find something worthwhile.
Good perspective to have hon. 🙌🏽 Would like to see more of these. I love the first one.
My blog header is a random mistake my iPad took of rain at night on the window, with a street lamp behind.
Thank you Chrissie! I’m trying to teach my daughter by example that it’s ok, good even, to make mistakes. It means we’re trying, right? Your header is very cool! Take good care 😘
I like it

My thinking is like yours regarding the price tag and the weight. I also tend to use my macro more than anything. I appreciate it, Sandra 🙂
