Insects can vary in size to a large extent, this means that insect photography too can vary from macro to close ups. The most important thing to remember is that we are dealing with relatively small animals here so we have to be careful not to intimidate them. Insects have very fine detail and if captured properly they can make beautiful photographic subjects. As they are so small we don’t see them in thier complete beauty on the normal course, therefore a photograph which shows lots details will be very …

Macro simply means big, micro means small now are they both the same thing ? In fact yes the two words point to the same realm of photography. Even close up photography is the same thing. That is getting small things to fill up the whole photograph. Now the scale of working is what differentiates them.
Macro and Micro are used interchangeably for the realm of photography which aim at getting the object that is in the photograph to be the same size as the sensor. That is on a aps-c canon …

Let us take it from the basics of what super macro photography is. Super macro is referred to the photographing of subjects at a ratio of more than 1:1. Normal macro is when we shoot at 1:1 magnification ratio, that is the 1mm of the subject is produced on the sensor as 1mm. Now super macro photography is when we represent 1mm on the subject as more than 1mm on the sensor.
What does super macro photography do?
The photographs become so detailed that you can compare them to looking at …

Lets get some things cleared first, the larger the aperture the smaller the depth of field that means the smaller the f stop the smaller the depth of field.  I repeat in bold
Large aperture = Small DOF
Small Fstop  = Small DOF
So what does that mean when u are using say 2.8 Fstop on your macro lens the depth that will be in focus will be less than when using say 4. I would like to look at depth of field as the volume in focus. Remember that the DOF extends …
