When you get into macro photography in a big way it REALLY helps often times to get some distance from your subject - because you are so close with a smaller lens even your camera can block out some of the light and otherwise get it/you in the way and be a problem. I highly recommend you consider 100mm macro lenses if there is any way you can get there. #1 issue is of course THEY ARE EXPENSIVE. Oftentimes they cost as much or more than your camera. I have a Canon and my best friend has a Sigma that does an exceptional job as well. If you are patient and stick with a search for one you should be able to find one for near half price retail. Not sure what Sony offers but possibly something similar? Good luck! An absolute must with these is a GOOD TRIPOD as well, as most shots will be be able to be hand held.
