Re: Shots from the back garden, R7 and RF 100mm Macro or 100-500L

Great shots.

I am being advised to get a macro lens for a trip to Costa Rica but I am not convinced.  I think a 100-500 would be more flexible and useful.

Do you have a shot using the 100mm macro and the 100-500 taken from the same distance?  I am interested to see how the subject fills the frame.  It's virtually impossible to get close to butterflies before they fly off so 100-500 seems a better choice.  Stationary subjects that don't run away the 100 macro is probably the better choice.

What do you think?
