In my film days I used a 35-105 F3.5 Nikkor Macro Zoom and loved it. The macro is used mostly for documenting my guitar and amp repair or builds. (Back then it was car parts!) Detail shots mostly. From what you say, and I certainly understand the DoF thing, I may be better off with the 85mm DX micro.

In this mode of shooting I could really care less about auto focus so I'd be switching it off anyway.

Thanks for your thoughts! Big help!
