When i get tired of reading intelligent humor like mark twain, i go to the forums,on whatever, (this one not included in that list) as you know i have been looking for a macro lens. please know that although i have been a photographer for many years and a pro for some. i am not so much into the technologies involved, i am more of a try it i might like it kind.
any way i think i had a brain f--- , in the discription of the tamron 60 mm 2.0 macro
it states that it is a dx lens, then goes on to say it has a 1.5 aspect ratio or is the same as a 93mm fx lens what did i mis Tamron states it this way in their propaganda. wow this is taking a long time to write i have to look up the spelling of all these .50 cent words before i type them because i ran out of white out.
i assumed that a dx lens marked 60mm was indeed a 60mm when used on a dx body. and a fx lens used on a dx body had a 1.5 effective increase in focal length this all sounded very clear when it woke me in the middle of the night now of course it sounds rather duh!!!!
oh well it will probably all come out in the wash, be well shoot,enjoy,repeat :thumbsup:

Nothing is really clear since the Great Yellow Father (King Kodak) passed away!!
for your enjoyment if i made you smile it was worth it LOL
have a great day an thank you for all your comments an advice i think at this point i will go with the 60mm tamron as i cant find a new nikon 60 for a reasonable price than again i am putting off ordering till monday and things could change by then i have given up procrastinating because its such a bother
