Re: Total beginner, just bought A7 IV, can you recommend lens combination?
Before you go too far down the macro path, consider an APO magnifier. I like macro, but I rarely shoot it. The Nisi APO magnifier is quite nice and works well with the 28-200 and is only $120.
I like the advice given earlier about just shooting with the 28-200 makes a lot of sense. You may not like 50mm. You may not like 35mm. Maybe 85mm is what really does it for you. I've learned over the years not to buy something just because it is cheap. For me at least, every time I've purchased a lens because it was cheap, I have eventually sold it. Buy the focal length prime you really enjoy, not what is cheap. Unless what you really enjoy happens to be cheap.
