Choosing between macro lenses
Hi guys
I have an a300 andIm planning to buy a new macro lens. I have two choices from sony, 50 mm F2.8 Macro and 100 mm F2.8 Macro Around 300 SGD price difference between the two (50 mm cheaper) Do you think 50 mm F2.8 is enough for good macro shots? Does any of you know a good third party lens that i can consider Your advice very much appreciated. Thanks
