Last week I was in Roatan and got some great results. Using the Zen dome always (did not bring flat port), 14-42 II and Oly 9-18, 2x Z240's, Manual camera, TTL strobes, RAW. Very very happy, I will post some pics (eventually).
But once or twice I attempted to get up really close to nudis or worms and was unable to do so. This is mostly due to the fact I had the dome on. So it got me thinking about diopters, close up adapters, flat ports and macro lenses.
What are the range of options for high quality macro? I see there is a reasonably priced 35mm macro lens that I had not noticed before. Would this be a better quality option than adding diopters to the 14-42? Or does it also need its own diopters to be added. I am not very knowledgeable about macro, I have always concentrated on wide, so a quick summary of the pros and cons of different setups would be a big help.
Thanks in advance
