Yes, got to agree, the 18-55mm is more to a close up then true micro. If you really want to get true macro shot, like shooting small ants, then you have to go for macro lens. The minimum focus length on macro lens is much shorter, you can actually go to almost 1-2 cm close to the object.

Anyway, I'm into my first DSLR project now, collecting closeup short of various object. We can share notes if you like. You can check out My close up gallery at Nix Digital Photo World.

Just started it with my new D60, so it will take abit of time before I can update it will more pic.

cheers
