Title kinda says it all, and I know price does not always dictate quality. I want to learn to take true macro pics. I was looking at the Nikkor 40mm f/2.8 which is affordable for me, I think it was 280.00 last time I checked. However, I don't want to waste money either. It has good reviews on many sites that I've come across. My only fear is that I get it and it doesn't do what I want. lol. The next option up, price wise is the 50mm f/2.8 which is a manual focus lens, which I was thinking would be great to learn on as well in the area of manually focusing simultaneously; this one runs around 400 bucks. I'm sure I'm overthinking it all, but again, just looking for any experience with the two and opinions.
