The MP-e65mm is a different beast altogether. Flash only, and the closest working distance is only 0.243m @ 5X . Even @ 1:1 you've still got to be extremely close. Very rewarding when you get it right, but not an easy lens to use. |
I think the MP-e65mm is a bit out of my league at the moment..and a bit out of my price range!
Its nice to know your personal opinion on the Sigma...so would you reckon I'd be better off just paying a little extra for that added quality and the glass?
As i don't know what I would use the extra £200 on anyway if I were to get the 105mm
