Hi Fellow Members,
This is my first post so would appreciate your guidence and encouragement.
I have been taking photos as an amateur for many years but am new to macro photography. I am using Nikon D70 with 60mm macro len. I realized that the rule of thumb for shutter speed setting using 1 / (focal length X crop factor) does not apply in macro photography as the magnification varies while the focal length is fixed (60 mm in my case).
Would appreciate if someone can advise what would be the new rule of thumb in setting the shutter speed for macro photography?
