The Nikon 105/2.5 is excellent, but the Canon 100/2 FDn is, if possible, even better. Nice compact size (about the same as the 105/2.5), great handling, and the FD-NEX adapter is fairly slim.


Hmmm. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

In the 90\'s, I banged my head against the wall with the contrast-less head shots at f/8 with the FD 100mm lens. The printer finally said to me, \"You ever considered it a lens problem?\"

Upon, buying a Nikon 105/2.5 AIS and then a Nikon body, problem solved. The Nikon 105/2.5 is excellent.

Sorry, I fundamentally disagree with this, even in an age of post processing.

Try a Minolta 100/2.5 for $100 bucks, instead.
