Macro photography

Assalamualaikum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Macrophotograph of a Common Yellow Dung fly (Scathophaga stercoraria). Made using a lens at its maximum 1:1 reproduction ratio, and a 18×24mm image sensor, the on-screen display of the photograph results in a greater than life size image.

Macrophotography is close-up photography, usually of very small subjects. Classically a macrophotograph is one in which the size of the subject on the negative is greater than life size. However in modern use it refers to a finished photograph of a subject at greater than life size.^[1]The ratio of the subject size on the film plane (or image sensor plane) to the actual subject size is known as the reproduction ratio. Likewise, amacro lens is classically one lens capable of reproduction ratios greater than 1:1, although it now refers to any lens with a large reproduction ratio, despite rarely exceeding 1:1.

Outside of technical photography and film-based processes, where the size of the image on the negative or image sensor is the subject of discussion, the finished print or on-screen image more commonly lends a photograph its macro status. For example, when producing a 6×4 inch(15×10 cm) print using 135 format film or sensor, a life-size result is possible with a lens having only a 1:4 reproduction ratio.

Reproduction ratios much greater than 1:1 are considered to be the realm of photomicroscopy, often achieved with digital microscope.

Fakta diatas aku copy dari wiki sahaja sebab aku masih belum pandai buat tuto photography.Yang pasti aku memang minat macro photography.Sebab apa?Sebab aku dapat mengahayi kehidupan kecil,yang kita tak boleh nampak dengan mata kasar.Hmm macro photography kalau nak diikutkan perlukan banyak model sebab macro memang mahal.Tapi sekarang dah banyak alternatif untuk jadikan kit lens(lens basic) menjadi macro lens.Salah satu nye,guna extension tube (manual focus RM55 auto focus RM400 - RM500) , Raynox dr250 ( RM270-RM300)
,Close up filter(paling murah sila bergoogle).Selain tu kena mesti ada speedlight dan difusser(melembutkan cahaya).Insyallah lepas nih aku buat entry D.I.Y diffuser.Senang je,modal tak lebih rm10 ! Memandangkan saya tak da semua gadjet semua tu(speedlight ada),saya gunakan teknik reverse lens(entry akan datang)..
