Family accident. Let's leave it at that.
Not insured, I've lost coverage after the last accident (still came out ahead). The lens next to it, is my old lens, with new parts. Glass elements (all but one, which is a part of a barrel) are all good, AF motor was good, casing was good. That being said... it's pretty much a new lens, got a new serial number too. APS did a really good job fixing it. It's a good thing they are only 15 minutes away.
No clue on your Macro lens choices. Though, like you... I would also like to have the Nikkor 200mm... but it's $5k. It can wait
