  • Brill thanks, looks like a good shout, I will check it out. Absolute top for budget would be £500 but if I can do the job for around £250 that's far more palatable. Focal length, this is where my knowledge is limited, I thought macro lenses tended to be much higher focal length than 30mm. Does longer focal length just mean you don't need to be as close to the subject?

  • You're right about the longer focal lengths giving you more room to work with your subject (lighting etc)- but using a relatively short macro lens will give you a larger depth of field and thus less need for focus stacking.
