The air can focus on things closer up then the pro with no zoom too, as a way to compensate for not having as much zoom.. people saying air owners are overcompensating about the camera is silly when I have seen two reviews from real photographers that have gone into detail about the differences.. anyone can look it up, it really is the opposite. It seems more like pro owners are trying to overcompensate because they thought the 1x was superior. They are the same just tweaked for there format and space to cram into. One has a larger sensor, the other a larger arpenture. I’m sorry to both sides but that is the truth.

I'm interested in hearing about using the Air camera in macro mode. Does it have disadvantages in extreme close-up work compared to the regular 17?
