Thank you Gents for the quick reply. A couple things:

- i only have the kit lens that came with the camera. 12-42

-just searched for the lenses mentioned, $400+ is definitely out of budget right now. I could do maybe $200-250, open to buying second hand.

once again thank you

There aren't many M43 lenses in the price range you mention, and not all of them would suit your purpose.

The  Olympus 30mm F/3.5 Macro is one of the the least expensive M43 lenses, and certainly the cheapest M43 Macro.

It's actually a very decent lens, althogh if you want high magnification you may find the working distance a little short.
