DANIXP GOES MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY: INSECTOPHIA 2010

TAMRON 90MM F2.8 / ISO 400 / F5.6 / A-mode

This is my first try on Macro photography using a macro lens, Tamron 90mm f2.9 macro 1:1 to be exact. siuk berabis but difficult berabis, a single turn on the lens and a sudden move will cause it to be out of focus. U really really need a sturdy tripod for this kind of photography. Anyways there are more to come from me for this macro photography.Cheerz, DaniXP

Macro Photography on Wiki

Macro photography is close-up photography. The classical definition is that the image projected on the "film plane" (i.e., film or a digital sensor) is close to the same size as the subject. On 35 mm film (for example), the lens is typically optimized to focus sharply on a small area approaching the size of the film frame. Most 35mm format macro lenses achieve at least 1:2, that is to say, the image on the film is 1/2 the size of the object being photographed. Many 35mm macro lenses are 1:1, meaning the image on the film is the same size as the object being photographed. Another important distinction is that lenses designed for macro are usually at their sharpest at macro focus distances and are not quite as sharp at other focus distances.
