I'm trying to decide between these 3 macro lenses in order from highest to lowest price for my Canon EOS 30D:
http://www.tamron.com/lenses/prod/90mm.asp
http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=155&modelid=11156
http://www.sigmaphoto.com/lenses/lenses_all_details.asp?id=3252&navigator=5
I can't decide, i'm getting this for strict macro work, flowers, bugs, hopefully commercial work eventually. I do like that the Sigma has the f/45 min, but it is 50mm, and i already have a 50mm lens that tales decent macros, even though it's not a macro lens. The Tamron has a better price than the Canon 100mm and looks cooler too . The Canon and the Sigma both have the same focusing distance, 7.4in. I do like to get close to my subjects, the Tamron has a 11.4 in distance.
What does everyone else think is the best to have?
