Arrow Euros, euros, euros (macro)
I was trying out my new lens i got in Wednesday, Nikon 105mm f/2.8 VR ED Micro and shot some pictures of Euro coins. I figured out that this lens is great not just for macro but for distant portraits. Even though the autofocus is slow when shooting macro it's quite fast and precise in comparison with other lens. I am going to use this lens a lot.

Euros, euros, euros (one)

Euros, euros, euros (two)

Euros, euros, euros (three)

Euros, euros, euros (four)

Yup, and I must say that these shots weren't shot as full macro(1:1). They were around 1:1.6 and 1:1.2. And yes, compared to the dollar at the moment they are...
