[QUOTE="nickt, post: 300028, member: 4923"] When comparing macro lenses, one of the things to note is the minimum [B]working[/B] distance. They may or may not give that number directly. Instead they might give minimum [B]focus[/B] distance. The working distance is the distance from the front of the lens to the subject. The focus distance is from the sensor plane to the subject, so with the minimum focus number, you need to take into account the length of the lens to figure the working distance. [/QUOTE]
