yeah, I want to buy one for myself now! A photographer in Woerden (where I live) rents out a few lenses. A macro, super zoom 170/500, fisheye and some other stuff. Not a lot of stuff, but some of 'essentials' and since I have limited funds, it's a great way to try out some stuff first.

Got some new gear saturday ^^
@ Sedona, I got a Hama Macro lens + 10 Dioptr. works great and nice price and if you have a 2x convertor, you've got yourself a nice macro lens. maybe you should look into that.
