yeah my lens is a 100mm 2.8 macro. It might be worth getting a dedicated lens but your 100-300 should work pretty well, no?

in some cases, yes, it does. But it's this antique old Sigma that I'm weirdly attached to — heavy, big problem with backfocusing and it slowly hunts a lot. If I wanted to capture something with movement, freeze a moment: a bug's wings, a dynamic water droplet... I don't know that I'd get the shot I wanted. I just keep looking at people doing really beautiful macro work and I get itchy that I should buy better gear, even though it's not really my area of expertise!
