How close can a lens focus? Thanks! I realized I can find this number now if I look at the "tech specs" of lens. I've noticed some of the specialized lenses have a MFD of 1 ft. |

How close can a lens focus? @rm999: yes - for the purpose of my question I was assuming a constant focal length. Do you have a recommendation for a focal length used for photographing insects and/or flowers? |
