Traded in my 30mm F3.5 Macro lens for a 50mm F2.8mm lens. The "sales pitch" was that I should be able to take better macro photos with a better depth of field due to being able to take pictures from a farther distance.
Not sure if I'm so crazy about it. Much more difficult to use for an extreme amateur like me.
Much more difficult to take non-blurry photos with no tripod vs the old 30mm lens. (I have a tripod already but it doesn't let me get in real close inside the light box). I do think that I now need a more flexible tripod and a shutter release cable...more money spent. I should just get the new Google Pixel phone........LoL
Also can't get those really close shots of just a few millimeters away of say a hinge or catch...or at least haven't mastered it yet
So....What do you think of the photos? I'm I asking too much of this lens?
Are they any good?
