Steven,
I find my 60mm Micro-Nikkor to be a great lens for this work as well. The advent of digital Nikons with sub 35mm format sensors pushed this lens into the duty the 105mm Micro line used to take care of.

Another great lens that should do very well for this work is the 35-70mm 2.8 AF-D Nikkor that I recently acquired. It's a discontinued lens but had some of the best glass in it's class and has a macro feature (1:4 magnification). Very low distortion, low vignetting and sharp, with great color rendition. Built with all metal and heavy as a tank from that good glass. Still available for a while and for under $500.
