Absolutely. If you're 2" away, the camera itself is usually blocking
the light.
I find macro photography endlessly frustrating, and much better
close-ups of anything you care to mention can be seen on various web
sites.


I take your point but sometimes you see a pant or flower that you want
to identify or remind yourself of it's height and spread if you are
buying one. Then you need to get as good a picture as you can.
