W.r.t. to a lens with a defocus system you'd be looking at the Nikon 105mm f2 D AF DC Lens, around £790 in U.K. Hardly justifiable on the D60 surely!

Of course you might have to get the Leica to fit on the back of it, but that's another thread.

    One thing about macro lenses, they are usually tack sharp.  This
    could be less than a good thing for a portrait lens.

    Nikon have just brought out their latest f=60mm macro lens. This
    on a D60 would give a field of view equivalent to a 90mm lens,
    perfect for portraits.
    Alternatively, look at the Sigma f=70 macro or f=105mm macro
    lenses. All ideal, and double up as a macro lens as well. Hard to
    beat really!
