hi all,
need some help and advise here. I'm quite interested on taking macro or close up shot e.g. insect or something like that. understand that i must switch to the macro mode in order to take shot. but i have some question hovering in me for the past few session of photo taking of macro shot as i do not really know what is the correst technique of taking macro shot.
1) should i bring my camera close to the object like only a few cm away or prefered a certain length of focusing?? (maybe what is the correct distance should i place my camera infront of the object ? )
2) understand that there are close up filter in the market e.g. +2, +4 etc. what is the function of this filter and how to use it appropriately?
i had tried using a macro filter +4 that i had borrowed from my friend. have tried taking shot with macro mode but without the filter and again tried taking using macro mode but with filter attach and i discover that there is not much different when using the filter. is the problem ly on my camera or is it the misuse of the filter ??
kindly enlighten
thanks so much
