I really like this. Well done!
 
Thank you! I love macro work and I also love getting up-close and personal with my subjects.....

Yes, I'm happy with the lenses I have but I would like to get a proper macro lens.

My friend is very happy with his Sony 90. It may be quite old now, but it seems to have held an always-good reputation. And it's not big money.

I have an old Tamron 90, fully manual, 1:2 semi-macro. I don't have the patience or the steady hands for macro, but when I do decide to give it another try, this is good enough for me. One tends to end up at least partly manual, with macro, so I think a manual lens is fine. I have the Sony FE85/1.8, so can't justify 90 for that very occasional macro.
