My wife have letten me know that I can choose a new macro lens for my upcoming birthday
I can't make my mind up between the Tokina 100mm and the Nikon 105mm VR.
If you look away from the price, (which I do in this case), I have some doubt about which one will suit my underwater rig best. (Hugyfot D7000 and 2 x Inon Z240)
1)The Tokina is extending quit a bit on close focus, so I need an 60mm extension ring for it, wheres the Nikon only need a 20mm, so the port will be an extra 40mm long with the Tokina.
I'm not sure if this mean anything at all, for example for flash placement, handeling or anything. Ie which is best :a shorter port og perhaps a longer port can be a benefit?
2) the Nikon is quit a bit heavier (2-300g) and the port is shorter so I guess the setup will be more negatively boyant than with the tokina
Perhaps the above concerns is irrelevant, but I'm trying to get as close as I can to choose the right one
and I would really like to know about other peoples experiences with the two lenses under water
