I don't think a macro lens would help. I don't know whether the working distance of the lens that is connected to the camera has any effect on the overall working distance, but it was already a very small distance (from less than an inch to a couple of inches), so a close-focusing lens would not seem to offer any great advantage.I don't know whether a prime would have been better. I wonder whether one factor that contributed to the rather extreme vignetting was that the 50mm f/1.8 is physically a little narrower than the 75-300 IS (52mm filter size as against 58mm). I would have liked to try this with my 180mm macro lens, but the filter size is even greater on that lens.
