Close-Up and Macro Photography
by Adrian Davies
In this exhaustive guide to macro photography, respected author
and photographer Adrian Davies takes a comprehensive approach to
the subject, covering every aspect of the multi-faceted and often
complicated world of close-up photography.
Everything about Adrian's approach is both practical and diverse,
with optimal output always in mind. His coverage of equipment, for
example, goes beyond cameras to cover the application of flatbed
and film scanners for close-up shots (2D, 3D, reflective and
translucent subjects).
Seperate sections cover cameras and equipment, lenses, lighting,
workflow and image processing. Additionally, a seperate section
on 'special subjects' covers techniques for shooting both common
macro subjects (including insects, fossils and coins), as well
as a range of technical elements such as shiny surfaces, texture,
and polarised light. The appendix includes a technical discussion
on depth of field, including detailed tables, and a range of
optical formulae.
Clear, concise and comprehensive, and packed with stunning images,
this is a must-have purchase for all photographers looking for
professional quality macro results.
