>>4462510What kind of macro are you interested in?
Asking because I myself am kinda new to "proper" macro photography, I only bought true macro lens this spring (Canon RF 100mm) and so far had limited success with it, having few opportunities to practice because summer was quite busy.
Before that, I occasionally shot bugs with my old Canon EF-S 55-250 STM, which isn't really considered a macro lens at all, but I would say it actually has a number of advantages over a much more expensive "true" macro RF 100, and it's a lot easier to get a decent shot of a medium and larger insect (anything bigger than a fly) with it, especially if you are new to photography.
Its light, versatile and lets you comfortably take pictures of small subjects from almost a meter away, without disturbing them.
Here's a pic I took with it mounted on canon 600D quite some time ago.
