Johannah, I' m a comparative newbie to digital photography so perhaps I can't identify my needs correctly. I want to make micro|macro (if there's any difference) shots like Your "Rain Drops Keep Falling On My Head...", for instnce (Or even more detailed). And the lens I've got can't provide me the magnification ratio I need. What are the pros and cons? And can anybody say for sure: this shot is made through a macrolens, and that one is through afilter because of this and that... The only thing I'm sure about is that I need zoom... Thank You in advance, -Anthony.
