Re: Do I Really Need a Macro Lens?

If you're happy with the results w/o a macro, by all means save your cash.    If you want to get really close, macro shines and is worth the cash.

I would agree a 100-400 can give you some amazing macro work.  The subject just has to be big enough, and you have to have the physical distance from the subject.

Have fun!
