Neither the Tamron nor Tokina will AF with the D5500 if that will be an issue. The Sigma 105 will.

Perhaps you should create a poll and see how many people use AF on macro. I don't know anyone who does, but it's not about me.

I use autofocus all the time apart from some very rare exceptions.

I NEVER use auto focus for macro. I use mostly body position.

But perspective will change if the camera moves - so focus change should be better, whether manual or auto.

Perspective doesn't change enough to matter.
