Shopper conversation with Courtney B on June 15, 2016

Courtney B
Hi! How are you? I noticed that you were looking at the Tamron 150-600mm lens?
Yes...I have the Nikon d7200....but, am thinking about the FF d750. Is this lens only for FF
Courtney B
Ok! This lens can be used on either FX or DX cameras
But you'd have the 1.5x crop factor on a DX camera
ok, would that change anything else if put on a dx?
Courtney B
Nope. Just the focal length
Ahhhh.....thank you. I am still thinking about this. You have helped me a lot!! One more thing...can you recommend a macro lens for the 7200?
Courtney B
Sure!
Do you have an approximate budget in mind?
Well...the problem is whether to get one for a full frame or dx or is there one that works on both
Courtney B
Ok!
The 60mm would work on either
Or the 105mm from Nikon or Sigma
So which one would be best?

Well, the Nikon 105mm is the best option
Plus it has VR, which is really nice for macro work
Oh....yes....Ok, thank you.....I'll look them up.

The Sigma 105mm is a very comparable option for only $619 right now
So that's a good second option
Its 619? Is that the one you just posted?
Courtney B
Yes.
