I have been using the Sigma 105mm so far and feel that while this is a great lens for land it might not be the best choice for uw macro shooting, simply because it is so powerful that I have a hard time locating the subject and keeping it in the frame. Also, with my DS-51 strobes I can't go with apertures over 14 or underexposure results. This in turn brings issues with depth of field. So I have been thinking about the Zuiko 50mm macro lens. But I don't want to shell out a lot of cash for something comparable to my 14-54 zoom lens, if that is case. Is it worth to buy the dedicated 50mm lens as opposed to using my zoom lens for macro, with a wet lens attached if additional magnification is desired?
