Re: Macro lenses

The Sigma 150mm f2.8 macro is a very nice piece of glassware and has been said very well built. It has focus range limiter switches which improve the af response time but I tend to use it in manual as I'm quicker than the af lol.

The standoff distance is comfortable for most insects without disturbing them and it makes for a very good portrait lens as well. The Canon MR-14Ex ringflash will fit this lens with a 58mm adaptor ring
