Hee...it ranges from a Nikon 50mm f/1.8 + Nikon BR-2A (cheapest) to a Nikon AF-S VR 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED (most expensive).mandom said:So DP, wat kind of "cheap macro lens" do you use? nice decent shots though...
In between those there are also extension tubes, reverse-lens coupling rings, macro lenses from other manufacturers etc, etc. It's an addictive hobby :cry: (well actually it's more than a hobby for me) but you can actually get pretty decent shots with something as simple as the 50mm f/1.8 with a Hoya +3, +4 or +10 close up adaptor.
This image for example was down with the 50mm and a +4 filter:
