I could do that, I think I'd prefer to have the option of using macro in the lens rather than using extension tubes although I will take a look into that as well.

Another inexpensive solution is the simple close-up lens, screwed into the filter thread just like any other filter. Stopped down to f11 results can be excellent.
Best regards, John

Adding a price - £285 inc Postage as looking to sell, I like my 40mm but I need to get something to cover more range (i.e a zoom)

The 35mm Macro isn't a zoom

Hi Ken,
I know! I'm re-evaluating my lens lineup and I'm going to use the cash from this to invest in a zoom for now.
I'd love to have a full set of primes but financial realities mean I can't!
I'm going to get a general zoom and then focus on other areas that I want to cover off.

So why does the heading say you want a 35mm Macro?

Well that was my thinking when I made the thread last night but I can't change the heading.

Also would consider a trade for the 35mm if anyone is interested.
