[OM] Question about Zuiko Macro Lens

[Ali]

Question regarding Zuiko Macro Lenses. Since I do not own one yet but 
sort of keeping an eye out. Is a Macro strictly used for macro 
work/close-ups or can the lens be used to take "normal" photos? For 
example: Could I use an 80mm Macro in the place of a standard 50mm? 
Might sound like a dumb question but I thought I would ask.

Thanks.
