I’m looking for a tidy macro lens for my Fuji X-t3. The 60mm is not a dedicated macro lens, and is only 0.5x magnification. Has any one any experience of a macro lens on a Fuji, it doesn’t have to be a Fuji lens, I just enjoy macro photography so want something which givesdecent result. Have thought about tubes, but sometimes they mean the lens to subject distance is very close.
In my Nikon days I had a 105mm f2.8 macro lens.
If you don't like the macro-tube route, then look for an old manual focus lens and cheap adapter. Something like the old Vivitar 55mm f/2.8 1:1 macro and corresponding mount adapter to Fuji X. The 'dumb' adapters can be had for about £10, and a lens like this will set you back about £80 - 100, depending on the condition.
