Thanks for the info. I won't be buying anytime soon. Just wanted to have an idea. We recently bought a tele lens because my father's into bird watching. So no more lenses in near future...

Macro Lenses are expensive now. i bought my one for 1.5 lakhs last year. now its around 3 and half lakhs

Canon EF 100mm 2.8L Macro is the best, it has super fast auto focus but little heavy to handle. I recommend Tokina ATX-D 100mm 208 Macro. Its light enough to shoot handheld but has slow Auto Focus which doesn't bother me bcs im using Manual Focusing for all my shots

I use 75-300 now. Want to buy a macro lens though... Any good recommendations?

I've used 55-250 and 75-300. now im using 100m Tokina f2.8 Macro lens exclusively for butterfly photography.

Thank You, Got a new lens. 100mm Macro can get sharp closeups now
