Re: My personal macro and tele lens comparison

Yes, you are both right.

I made a fast test this morning, the distance from front lens to object is 8,5cm and with lens hood it is 3cm.

I also measured the 75-300mm with +3 diopter, the focus distance from lens to object is between 26 and 32cm.

I think I got it wrong because with the 60mm I always have the tiny lenshood on and because it feels much, much closer compared to using tele zooms (where I avoid the huge lens hood as often as possible) ...
