Got a K200D about a month ago at the IT fair
So guys, i'm really in to macro photography and im thinking of getting a macro lens for the hell of it. I'm really stuck between the Pentax 50mm and 100mm macro. What do you guys think? Or probably third party lenses. Been reading around, its just hard to decide.
in any case, here is my photojournal(for fun), so please drop by http://takenoffthenet.livejournal.com/.
So anyways, I have a macro converter(which i got totally ripped off for, dont ask how much or from where because i feel so darn stupid about it), it's not too bad but I feel i need a further working distance for insect macros.
the fact that I would like my lens to double up as a portrait might help.
Seems i'm leaning towards the 50mm, im not sure, so please advise, thanks!
