How to buy Camera Lenses

Good photography, if you use digital or classic film, is based on a number of things – a box, a goal and you! Each of these three things May be of high quality or just the average. Who do you prefer?

One of the things I preach to my students in photography, over the years, especially technology, which is sure the device is important, and more than ever in this day and age of the CCD and many mega-megapixels, but even more important that the body is the lens or lenses you put online.

I can not emphasize enough the importance of good slow, expensive and slow, unfortunately, there is, but it is not a substitute for good glass and good construction.

And when it comes to macro / micro photography add another 20% for the crucial factor. Do yourself a favor, so close to photography is your thing, buy a brand Macro 1:1. Both Canon and Nikon macro 1:1 in their stables, they are not cheap, but quite good.

The latest Nikon 105 F2.8 AFS Micro is an excellent example of this quality. He has an incredible depth of field * when you are working in close collaboration, which adds a touch of creativity purpose. You can change the world, the media is transformed into a work of art in a moment of emotion – this experience once, and I always come back for more and, if necessary, the net output, precise images.

Macro lenses are expensive, but the quality of lenses speak for themselves and long-term investment is worthwhile, especially considering the huge gain in terms of creativity and fun to use this precise instrument.

But remember one thing when you work really closely, the passage in the center of development outside the development is so fast that the opening of wide open, it is sometimes difficult to be sure the concentration point or object which is based on a quality good enough to hold all the image creation. If in doubt, your point of transition to different positions on the issue and draw 3, 4 or even a dozen blows.

One of the great things about this digital revolution is that many managers of recovery at the time on a matter not of cost. Experience! Try other openings, a hook (more than one shot at a time when several exposures in order to get the best exposure), try the flash, flash … without feeling

The list of possibilities is endless. It is interesting to extravagant shooting for the beginning to find a look you like. Remember to concentrate or focus, with and without movement, all have merit. If you like crisp clean images, I recommend you always use a tripod – the amount of camera shake is generally exaggerated the closer you are to get the picture. Moreover, given the emphasis in the review of nearly a tripod is really a useful tool, but it slows a bit down, allows hours of reflection, a little time for reflection, weighing options . Of course, this does not mean that the subject is necessarily to stay, but then you can not have it both ways.

If you’re like me and you like taking lots of photos of flowers, you know trying to keep the flowers on a windy day! I took photos in the past where the flower is almost completely abandoned the image by the time I took the photo. Frustrating, yet even then, I find that sometimes a flower out of the picture is beautiful … somewhat fuzzy, a little strange but cool. Serendipity at its best.

* For those of you who are new to serious macro photography with a DSLR in mind that the opening of the objective is always to its position as the largest opening to facilitate the direction and stops the only opening at the selected shot is taken – then the difference that you see sometimes boring between the image and the image can be seen, while the focus.
