Yes
currently using a 60mm macro lens, unsure of the working distance

does anyone know how much extra working distance I would get if I went for a 100mm?

Thanks
 
If working distance is a problem, look into a sigma 150mm or 180mm macro.
They're excellent lenses.

Cheers for the recommendations. Its not really a problem, but there are times when I think...hmmm just a tiny bit more distance and I would have had that! lol
 
I've used a 60mm, 100mm and 150mm and settled on the 100mm as the one I bought. For me it gave the best balance between usability and working distance. The Sigma 150mm is a really nice lens, but on the occasions I wanted to use it hand-held I found the 100mm was just so much easier to handle.
