MacroMate and D2X

California waters tend to be darker than the tropics. Also the good small macro subjects tend to be camiflouged. For these reasons I felt the 105 didn't AF well with the D100. No problem with the 105 and the D2X. I suspect the D200 will AF fine with the 105.

Is that as far back as it will flip? If so, sticking out at about 90 degrees could be problematic for swimming with. If it flipped back all the way to the port barrel, that would be better.

I seldom swim marathon distances when I'm shooting macro. If I did though the lens flips into place and back very quickly. I haven't felt this was a problem so far.

A question about the "non flipping version" : how do you secure it ?

Thanks
