It took a little over 3 months for my H1 to get renewed but I wouldn't base anything on this. Its govt... if they feel like working they will approve yours in 3 weeks and if they don't you can read Bose's issue. I have lost all respect for functioning of govt.

I am in the same boat.
Approved I-140 in EB3 category. Current employer wants to file in EB2 category, they gave me a new job that qualifies for the category but my Attorney says that I have to withdraw my current EB3 application..
I have read so many post here and every where that tells me that it is possible to continue the process but my lawyer says that I need to withdraw EB3 case.... Any one knows good lawyer around DC Metro area with good experience for Eb3 to Eb2 transfer with the same employer

You'll always have very limited DOF in macro situations. That's why real macro lenses (ex. the Micro-Nikkors) are optimised to give good results even when stopped down a lot.

Hi,
Does anybody know as to how long it takes to receive the H1B receipt # when its being processed in premium processing?
Mine was premium processing. 15 days to receive receipt and another 15 days to receive approval.

In general, macro lenses around 100mm are good for most kinds of macro photography. They have too much working distance for use on a copy stand, and not quite enough for skittish and/or dangerous insects or small animals. For general purpose stuff, the angle of view is such that you get enough background isolation to be worthwhile (you can rotate around your subject just a bit to get a highlight out of the background, while a 50mm macro takes in more background and makes this difficult).
I got a used Tamron 90mm, and let's just say that the build quality does not inspire confidence - however, the image quality is excellent. From what little I've seen of the Sigma 105mm macro (and from the many images that the members here have posted), it appears to have a bit better build quality and fine image quality as well. The Nikon macro is not going to be much better, if at all, in image quality than these, and you will pay dearly for the brand name. The one macro lens to avoid, however, is a "Phoenix" macro that only goes to 1:2 (that means that you can't get enough magnification for most small insects and flowers to fill the frame) and is most likely more cheaply built than my Tamron. Almost every other macro lens goes to 1:1 these days, and you can get the nicer ones used from KEH for not much more, so there's no reason to buy not-so-ideal lenses that you'll outgrow in no time anyway.
