Aloha, I've been looking into getting a lens for Macro photos. I'm still pretty new to all of this and researching had become a little overwhelming. So I thought I'd ask for personal experience/preference. I do a lot of Macro Flora. Flowers, leaves, and almost anything on a plant. What lens would you recommend? These were all taken with my Canon 80D with the 18-135 mm kit lens. I want to be able to get up close and personal with the flowers.
You are doing well with what you have....a maceo lens is very shallow and harder to get a photo in focus by handholding (at least for me). So i use a 200 or 300 mm lens. You might get some ideas in the macro section here.
