Be cool, Be okay with slowing down and spending time creating your images
2. Stabilize Focus is critical, always use a tripod, gorillapod or stabilize your camera by placing it on a secure surface
3. Depth of field, at macro depth of field is much shallower than normal shooting
4. Focus, set the closest minimum focus distance and then move the camera or subject, not the focus ring]]> 2018-04-19 13:15:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/253404373 jamieshaw02 https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/253404374 2018-04-19 13:15:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/253404374 jamieshaw02 https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/253404377 Photograph your set-up to add into 'Part 2 - research' box

Explain in your own words what Macro Photography is

What makes a macro lens different from other lenses? 

Technically speaking 'True macro' refers to a lens that has a ratio of 1:1, explain in your own words what that means.

Macro photography is the use of special lenses and lens adapters to capture photographs of subjects that are highly magnified.

Macro lenses differ from other types of camera lenses because they are designed with a very short focal length. this allows the camera to get extremely close to a subject, filling the frame with extreme detail.

A 1:1 macro lens refers to the ratio that the subject is projected onto the image sensor at. A 1:1 ratio means that the subject is as detailed as it can possibly be using that lens, as it cannot focus at a closer distance. The only way to achieve more magnification would be to use 'extension tubes'.

I used the same setup for both of my subjects in the studio, so I will just include one set of setup photos.
The purpose of extension tubes is to add extra magnification to a cameras lens. Extension tubes go in between the camera and the lens, increasing the distance that the lens sits from the image sensor. A trade off that this creates is that less light passes through the lens. Because of this, extension tubes require large amounts of light or long shutter speeds to be able to photograph a subject.]]> 2018-06-01 10:32:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/264996143 jamieshaw02 https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/264996644 My Nikon D5300 with a 105mm lens with 31mm + 21mm + 13mm extension tubes.]]> 2018-06-01 10:35:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/264996644 jamieshaw02 https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/264996706 My Nikon D5300 with a 105mm lens with 31mm + 21mm extension tubes.]]> 2018-06-01 10:35:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/264996706 jamieshaw02 https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/264996738 My Nikon D5300 with a 105mm lens with 31mm extension tubes.]]> 2018-06-01 10:36:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/264996738 jamieshaw02 https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/264996763 My Nikon D5300 with a 105mm lens.]]> 2018-06-01 10:36:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/264996763 jamieshaw02 https://padlet.com/jamieshaw02/of3kc7s03gzd/wish/264998736 Below are my two favourite images from the photoshoots that I did on location.
