No, no, no! I unintentionally misled, based on what I _thought_ I heard from the seller. My error. This lens focuses down to just over 9", which is not quite "macro," but is quite close for a constant focus zoom. Doesn't matter if you're at 28mm or 70mm. Near focus is the same. For this lens, that is a very nice close focus distance. It does have some manual focusing problems, in terms of it's focusing ring sort of sticking and moving on, at the end of it's travel, but that turns out to not be a problem. Totally predictable, and it still works just fine. keith
