Very nice pictures. Which lens were you using? I checked the exif and saw 150mm f2.8. Don't remember if there was a nikkor prime with those specs.

It's the Sigma Macro 150

The highest nikor macro is 105 and I really liked that lens for it's VR but found the 105 wasn't quite enough for me.

I was thinking it was the sigma. They have an older nikkor 200mm micro actually, but the cost is quite high.

I can go 1:1. So the size of the image on the sensor can be as big as the size of the object itself.
