I have a Canon 20d with which I'd like to start shooting some macro. I know everyone raves about Canon's 100mm f/2.8 macro, but it's a little out of my reach right now for something I won't use all the time. I've read and seen that you can get some decent macro shots with the 50mm 1.8 and extension tubes. Adorama has their Pro Optic set for $85 which seems like a good investment, as I hear that you may want them for even more magnification when you finally get a true macro lens. Any comments on this idea?
FWIW, I've shot with the 50mm f/2.5 compact macro and PQ was very good IMO.
