What he says is accurate. Macros are often designed for fine focusing
action when focusing close up. It's not just the lens mentioned in his
review - most macro lenses are optimized for close focusing.
The most extreme example among the lenses I have is a Kiron 105mm f.28.
The focusing mechanism turns almost 1.75 complete rotations. The first
1/4 rotation takes it from infinity to one meter. The remaining 1.5
rotations covers the distance from 1 meter to just under .45 meters. It
would be a pain to use for portraiture but is very handy for closeup work.
