105mm VR Macro on D7000 - to keep or not? Advice?

You will love the 105mm. I have the lester dine version of the 105mm 2.8 all manual since it won't talk to to the baby nikon bodies. I use it for macro, as well as portrait when I can. If it metered with my body I would us it much more as a portrait but it takes me too long to chimp to the right exposure. Obviously it would be nice to use it on FX, but when you shoot with what you have it works, and works well.
Here are a few.

It even works on 4/3 sensors so don't worry about DX being too cropped
