Hey All,
I'll preface this with the fact that I am an absolute novice when it comes to cameras. I've had a Sony alpha 5000 for a while now. I wanted a decent but easily portable camera, which for me it has done what I've wanted it to. What I'm struggling with at the moment is close up shots.
So to that end, does anyone have any experience with the camera and is anyone able to recommend a macro lens that might be suitable?
I know you can buy the made to measure one and that may very well be the exact one I need, but I believe you can also buy convertor collars so I would think that might open the field a bit.
I don't have a budget, that's not to say I don't have a limit (I haven't won the lottery just yet), but I don't know what these things cost so can't set my budget appropriately.
Any help or advice anyone could offer would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Marc
