I was just wondering what the difference was between the One touch Macro lens and the Two touch macro lens.

  Sorry - I've never heard of a "one touch" or "two touch" MACRO lens.
However, these terms DO apply to ZOOM lenses.
A one touch zoom uses the same outer ring to focus AND zoom - twist right or left to focus, and push/pull to zoom.
A two touch zoom uses different outer rings - one for zooming, and a separate one for focusing.

  I am probably thinking of the Zoom type lens. And it was in reference to a zoom lens with the Macro function. Your answer is what I was looking for.
Thanks.
