Critter Food series 1-3by *dalantech

Photography / Macro / Nature

No sun today so nothing was moving. So if I can't shoot the critters I'll shoot what they eat

Canon's MPE-65mm macro lens around 3 to 4 times life size.

Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro lens is less than half the cost of MPE-65mm macro lens. I suppose if I want my pictures looking like yours, I ought to order a MPE-65mm macro lens, right?

*dalantech Feb 7, 2009 Hobbyist Photographer

IMHO you should get a standard macro lens like the EF-S 60mm first, get use to shooting at life size with it, and then buy a full set of Kenko extension tubes to go above life size. Then if you really like shooting macro buy the MPE-65mm -the learning curve with it is too high to jump right in...

~CecilyAndreuArtwork Feb 7, 2009 Hobbyist Photographer

Sincerely appreciate your advice. Seems like it's difficult to fully utilize MPE-65mm without the necessary experiences. I shall learn to walk first before trying to run.

BTW, will there be similar problems for me to use one piece Canon EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS instead of multiple lenses of different ranges?
