hm, I don't know either... however, it was my birthday yesterday and I got an awsome tripod, a mini - tripod and a polarizing filter... next steps for me will be 2 lenses: 70 - 200/2.8 and 17-40/4 ... I will definitely buy a macro lens, but these two must be first

and they are daaaammmn expensive^^
hahaha so your birthday was on the 12th? ^^ mine was on the 11th

Well a very late happy birthday to you
So which awesome tripod did you get?

hmm those two lenses you want to get are indeed very expensive. Are you going to get the IS version of the 70-200 f/2.8 or the non?
Well I really want to get a couple of lenses myself with the first one being an ultra wide lens and I also kinda want to get the EF 16-35 f/2.8 L lens but this one is going to take awhile though lol.
I have read some reviews on both the EF 50mm f/2.5 Compact maco and the one you used which seems a lot better because it yields a magnification of up to 1x which means the subject can appear lifesize on the sensor while
the compact macro only gives a 0.5x magnification but the ideal macro lens would be the EF 100mm f/2.8 USM but the price is high though
