The lens is similar to a pair of glasses.

Sure you can have bifocals, but a lens has an optimal focal range.

With a lens where you can change the focal point, but only so far.

So if you want a super zoom, and a great macro, and a great 10 to 20 foot distance focal point. You will get much clearer pictures with 3 lens each optimized to the distance you want.
