Best Macro lens for a Nikon D40
As the title really, which are the best lenses to get to acheive good macro shots with the Nikon D40?
I'm saving up to get a good one. Any suggestions would be great. Examples of shot taken with particular lenses would be nice to look at too. Thanks in advance for your help.
