The lens is great, got pics of my son in full from a few feet away, and it works fine with macro stuff as well. Now i cant say if a dedicated macro lens would be any better cos i havent got one. If you want a few examples of my rather ordinary photos with this set up , just shout.
I too bought the martin edge book which is excellent reading, but i thought it concentrated more on DSLR's. I was lucky enough to get a canon eos 400d for xmas, so now im looking for a suitable housing for it, which i hope wont cost the earth. Have fun, i know i am, its great learning how and what these cameras can actually achieve.
Bri | Can you show me some examples of your photos (distance and macro)? (You can pm them if you're bashful!)
Thank you.
