I want to go to a macro head used by the master

1. Choose Tamron 90 macro lens. Because:

Tenglong 90 macro lens has mature technology, many users and high cost performance;

A macro head of 100 macro is generally better, but considering that your body is not full frame, 90 macro is more suitable.

2. The last Tokina 11-16 ultra-wide is not necessary. Because:

11-16 Ultra-wide-angle lenses are rarely used by enthusiasts, even by professional photographers, and if you don't need to work or specialize, don't buy ultra-wide-angle lenses. Even if you want to use a wide angle with a better effect, it is more practical and cost-effective to buy a mid-focus lens with an ultra-wide angle of about 16mm.

Coupled with the fact that your body isn't full-frame, the 11-16 ultra-wide angle multiplied by the focal length conversion factor makes the wide-angle effect much less effective.

Forget about the ultra-wide, the perspective deformation is large, and there are not a few brushes that are difficult to control.

The last original new Baiwei bar, to the macro this, or the original factory is good!

1 Recommend Tamron 90, name.

2 The idea of not having a full pair of deputy factory heads is good, firstly, the investment is not played by the original factory, and secondly, it is familiar with the following ultra-wide perspective, and the whole pair will be upgraded in the future, and the lens will not be wasted.

No matter where you are or what focal length you use, you'll be able to shoot greatly**. Let's use five different types of lenses in one place and tell you how they work.

Macro lens

When you experience the charm of the macro lens, every corner of the world will be different in front of you.

The microcosm of the macro lens perfectly illustrates what it means to be "a piece of sand and a paradise".

The macro lens allows us who are familiar with the macroscopic world to enter a place that we have never seen before'Microcosm. Almost all photographers who are new to macro lenses like the feeling of filling the whole frame with small things that are not usually clear, but in fact, the use and function of macro lenses is much more than that. Most macro lenses are prime lenses, with focal lengths between 35 and 200 mm, and relatively large apertures, so they are excellent at blurring backgrounds, and the image quality is also very good, especially at close range.

Under normal circumstances, you can use a macro lens as a prime lens with very good image quality. Most macro lenses have a maximum aperture of f, and the depth of field is very small when the aperture is wide open, so we can use the same methods and composition techniques as ordinary lenses for macro lens shooting.

As you all know, depth of field depends on the lensFocal lengthwithAperturesize, which also depends on the focusing distance. Focusing distances are extremely short, with a depth of field often only a few millimeters. In this case, it is best to set the camera's focus mode to manual to ensure that the picture is clear and the focus is accurate.

When photographing still lifes, it's best to mount the camera on a tripod to further improve focusing accuracy. If you feel that the accuracy of manual focusing with the viewfinder is limited, you can also use the camera's live view function and zoom in on the frame. For older models that do not support live view, you can also choose a zoomed-in viewfinder that matches the viewfinder or a right-angle viewfinder with magnification.

In the macro lens, it can be said that "one sand and one world", so when we do macro photography, how to use the macro lens correctly? Let's take a look.

1.Select the appropriate macro lens according to your needs

Different macro lenses with different focal lengths have different application characteristics, specifically: under the same image field ratio, the shorter the focal length of the lens, the closer the subject distance; For the same subject distance, the longer the focal length of the lens, the larger the image; Short focal length lenses emphasize the perspective of the picture, while long focal length lenses compress the image, blur the background, and better highlight the subject. Generally speaking, it is necessary to leave a large gap between the lens and the subject.

When lighting and lighting the space, it is advisable to use a macro lens with a long focal length, and when photographing insects or other small animals, a macro lens with a longer focal length should also be used, so as not to be frightened and miss the opportunity to shoot.

2.Appropriate compensation**

When using a macro lens for close-up, it is necessary to make appropriate exposure compensation according to the shooting magnification, and the corresponding ** is recommended in the general macro lens instruction manual. Nowadays, most single-lens reflex camera lifters have an automatic function, and when using the automatic gear shooting of a camera with a camera with a blocking function, there is no need to compensate.

3.Pay attention to the shooting quality under the macro function

Many zoom lenses also have a macro shooting function (strictly speaking, it should be called a "macro function" or a high-magnification shooting function, because many zoom lenses marked with the word macro do not shoot very close at high magnification), but there is still a gap compared to the macro function of fixed-focus lenses. First, the shooting magnification is small, generally only 1:4, or even smaller (for example, the maximum macro shooting magnification of a Nikon lens at a focal length of 200mm is only 1:).

It is only 1:14 at 80mm focal length), and only a very few Dajan laugh bridges to 1:2; Second, the imaging quality of macro shots shot with a zoom lens is not as high as that of a fixed-focal length macro lens.

However, the Minolta AF Macro Zoom 3X-LX F is a special case of the zoom lens in terms of macro function, which is a macro zoom lens with a macro function that is larger than that of a fixed focal length lens, with a shooting magnification of 1x to 3x (magnification), and can still be autofocused when shooting at high magnification, making it the world's first high-magnification autofocus photography lens.

4.Precise focusing

Macro lenses make it easy to shoot smaller subjects up close, but macro shots with macro lenses require a small depth of field, careful focus, and the camera should be mounted on a tripod or remake frame whenever possible.

Use a tripod because macro focusing is relatively difficult.

Macro photography is often close to the subject, which is easy to block the light, and it is not easy to focus if the light is too dark. There are two ways to do this, one is to use a lamp and the other is to use a ring flash.

Don't open the aperture too wide, otherwise the depth of field will be too shallow, and even the subject will not be illuminated clearly.

Macro lenses with an equivalent focal length of 100mm or more can be about 1m away from the subject. Some lenses say that they have a macro function, but the equivalent focal length is less than 100mm, and this kind of lens can't shoot subjects such as small insects, but the closest focusing distance is relatively close.

The macro lens can get very close to the subject, and can shoot almost 1:1 in size**. Because the distance is very close and the depth of field is shallow, focusing is very difficult and requires a lot of skill and stamina.
