Thank you very much, guys!
From your answers I got a feeling: for shooting something with rich texture, a macro lens will do much better than a normal lens; otherwise the difference between a macro lens and a good normal lens will not be much. For shooting landscape, a 60mm macro will give similar results to a 50mm 1.8. So, a macro lens can be used as a *good* normal lens in general, and in some special situation can give much better results. Am I right?
