Thanks GG, i took a few photography classes at a summer camp i went to as a child, this was in the early 90's when cameras still had film, haha, but i fell in love with the ability to have alot more control over what your trying to shoot. Im sure itl be a big learning curve to take shots that are great, but ill at least be able to take some shots of the garden pre-post harvest without a shitty cellphone.
So the Macro lens your talking about is a 1:1 scale so that means it shoots the image at the exact same size it is in real life? Is that the closest you can get with a macro lens? Also you said that the lens you have is on a d800, do all newer Nikon lenses fit interchangably on to any nikon model?
Also need to get photoshop, i think a huge reason i never kept up with photography as a kid, is its expensive as shit for a young kid to have all that technology, also back then you had to have film developed by someone else, unless you had a dark room, and even if you had a dark room, developing the negatives, and exposing the film proved to be way to much for a ADD child. But now that photo shop can do everything and more than old school developing without deadly chemicals and time, it sounds like a great hobby
