    A macro lens has never interested me. I don't have the patience to look for a small bug.

    Funny I'm on the fence with the Macro lens. But not in a hurry for it, as I have not taken any images of flowers for some time now.

    Some people have the nack for this type of photography well others don't, but it does take practice like anything else and is not for everyone.
    I've been on the fence as Dennis mentioned, but I want to go ahead with this, thanks for your input guys.
