Wanted to ask .

Currently I am choosing between d700 and d600.

D600 is lighter, newer, more megapixel and Bette high ISO (not sure).

D700 is heavier, bigger, better AF system.

That's the main differences that I can see, both of them are around 3k used. I am going to pair it with 35mm or 50mm f1.8g. The 35mm works on ff too albeit with little bit of vignetting right?

Which is the better body to choose? I don't really need the higher MP but its handy to have.
*
better AF is better, can nail more shots. I personally choose d700/d750

Just finished setting up my new macro kit, with flash of course but not included in the picture haha. Quite satisfied with it considering I have around 15-20cm of working distance left even with 3 extension tubes added at closest focusing distance biggrin.gif

Sample pics taken in the night just now, something new for me to try grabbing focus in almost total darkness but as most of the bugs are chilling and resting they gave me a lot of time to slowly focus.

mind if i ask.
are you using black cloth for this photo or a black cardboard?

i have 85mm 1.8g w/ d5100
i wouldnt recommend it for indoor as it would be bit tight
as for event it was a bit slow focusing(in dark)
it is sharp lens even wide open
i buy it mainly for portrait thumbup.gif

85mm focal length, you must be standing really far away biggrin.gif but why ISO 1000?
*
I didn't even have explanation for that laugh.gif
Maybe I focus more on composition more than technical settings hmm.gif
