Happy Sunday,
I'd like to understand a little more about macro. I've read a lot of posts that a good macro lens for canon is the 100mm 2.8. Can you please explain to me how that is different (the mechanics etc...) than my using my 28-135mm at 100mm? Does a macro lens have to be a prime lens?
Is "macro" basically being able to focus at a much closer range than a "non macro" lens?
As always, appreciate the help so much.
