Today, to fulfill a lifelong dream
, I bought my first real macro lens. I have an Olympus E-1 and picked up a 35 mm f/3.5 lens. This bad boy goes all the way to a true 1:1 and is incredibly sharp. It's actually one of Oly's least expensive lenses, but it has the highest MTF numbers in their stable. Anyway, I was fooling around with the macro and some coins on my desk. Here's a couple of examples…all handheld because my tripod is broken.
