I recently purchased the 5700 Nikon. It comes with a fantastic Macro lense setting - check your manual. The other lenses advertised to go with this camera were actually adaptor lenses. One for wide angle and the other for telephoto. Be sure you get true Nikon adaptors as the others although less expensive can physically get in the way of the camera lens movements. I have not seen a macro adqaptor for this camera as yet - at least not one reccommended by Nikon. Call or check it out on their web site before you make any investment. I have taken some fantastic Macro shots with this camera that will knock you socks off!

Do you know of anywhere to get Nikon adapter lenses? Because I've been looking for a while and not even nikonusa.com has anything listed. Hence the reason I bought what I did...

I have a similar wide angle lense for my 995, It also says "macro" on it. What does that mean?
