    I've never used a macro lens before

    And I don't know if I will because all I need to do is zoom to 55mm, adjust my focus and then put a magnifying glass on top of the lens. Yeah, you could just buy one to save you the effort of holding a magnifying glass on top of your lens, but this is still a good trick to save 100$.

    60mm vs 105mm macro lenses

    I'm just wondering if there is any benefits from having a 60mm macro? Because it seems like a longer telephoto like the 105 or longer seems to be more beneficial because the working distance is significantly more. When would the 60 macro come in handy OVER a longer telephoto macro? I can see...
