RE: Get rid of 50mm macro
I would have to agree with Robert, one of the best 50mm lenses out there, macro or not.

Get rid of 50mm macro
I have two macros 50mm & 100mm. I do not use macro feature of 50mm and using it as regular lens. I am planning to replace this with some non-macro 50mm lens or Tokina 28-80/mm f2.8 zoom. By doing this, am I loosing anything other than macro feature? Thanks Ramesh __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com
