@susie zooms tend to add weight and bulk, to the point where some of those end up with people having to add rails to the rig for lens support, but eh. i don't have one because they tend to be around 400$, and i thought the cheap lens would be good enough for now.

the lens is actually fine but i don't work in environments where this amount of zoom is practicable. i'm used to the gopro's complete lack of zoom, that i didn't think i'd ever actually need a macro lens specifically :blobcatgoogly:
