Have you ever wondered about the beauty of a bee sitting on a flower or dewdrops on the grass early in the morning, then you're in good company. This form of photography has many fans and this form of photography is photography like a macro. Macro photography is a form of photography where the scale of the images is 1:1. This means that the object in the image of the same size as it is on the ground. Usually a common framework is great but the scaleMacro mode, the theme seems to be the same size as the natural

The macro mode is a very interesting kind of hard to photograph everything perfectly. First, this kind of photography requires a special lens for them. This is because the use of normal lenses, you can not focus closer than 2-3 inches three. And these plans must be very large to keep very close to the line. Therefore, you need special lenses for it.Common focal lengths that are used are the 60mm and 100 mm lenses. Beyond these objectives, there are those who are able telephoto macro zoom extreme example, Sigma 70-300mm telephoto lens, I could be macro photography at 200mm focal length longer. But this feature is useful for taking close-ups of distant objects, such as when they are hunting in nature, it helps me to takeexcellent close-ups of animals and birds in a forest. You can not do much closer to the target objects closer to him. Therefore, I prefer the specialized macro lens (my favorite lens for this purpose is the macro canon 100 mm).

Well, here are some tips for successful macro photos:

1. The best time to take such shots, especially shots of nature early in the morning. Right nowThe lighting is perfect, the dew still fresh and the color reproduction is excellent. So, take a walk in the park early in the morning, and you will find many opportunities for outstanding macro photos.

2. Be very careful at the world around you, there is no requirement to wait for special occasions, everyday life full of photo ops. the model on a tree trunk or an ant is about twice the weight of all photo opportunities and try to catch them.

3. Makelighting. Since you are shot at close range, you may need to use the flash. However, with the blue flash can provide the photo or can lead to reflection so if you have a polarizer. Otherwise, if you can manipulate the position of the object (like a stamp or coin), then put on a white background, there will be a good dramatic effect.

4. Be sure to focus on. If not in focus, then the whole image is ruined. Pay so muchAttention to this fact. Also note that it is necessary to maintain the high shutter speed (I prefer 1 / 125 and above) and aperture (f / 4.5 or 5.6) format. It is to blur the background and provide clear images of the object.

5. Since the macro lenses are expensive on the market one of the sets of 'equipment close to being sold. These are actually the magnifying glasses and screwed your normal range of concentrations. Although theThe picture quality is not very good, are in order for a person with a limited budget, because you have this macro lens kit with just a tenth of the price of a normal macro.

The Macro is a beautiful form of photography and can be very addictive. Apart from that it can produce impressive results if done properly.
