Derek - Like your closeups of the SMD
components.

I am looking at getting a macro lens for my
Nikon D70 as I miss not having a macro from
my old CP5700.

Your photos of the SMD parts say 100mm.

Is that lens a 100mm in 35mm terms or is
that 100mm after the digital SLR one point
whatever multiplication factor ?

I was looking at a 105mm macro lens that
would end up being equivilent to something
like 140mm on the digital and was wondering
if that was too much.  I was used to a 90mm
on my old pentax film cameras and would not
have minded a bit longer back then.
