Great interview, and thanks Don for sharing your work. Really great stuff! I've always loved close-up photography, but let it wane in recent years. I think this discussion is motivation to revisit that passion. Thank you !
So yes, it can help in controlled studio conditions, but I'm rarely so lucky to have ideas to explore that take the "easy" road.
Don said best macro lens is 100mm, although I think he's probably shooting full frame (Canon?), but with MFT I assume that would that be 50mm macro (2x)? I see Panasonic has only one macro lens (45mm) listed on their web site. How sharp is it?
There is definitely an audience, and I love to make fine art prints of these images as well. :)
