The first problem we need to look at is, how close the lens will focus. Lenses have a minimum focus distance which varies considerably from lens to lens, some longer zoom lenses have a 'macro' setting and will focus quite close but most lenses will not focus close enough to take the picture on the right.

Here is a method for producing extra depth of field in all, or just part, of your picture. We decided to put this tutorial in the 'photography' section rather than the 'Photoshop' section because, although the large part of the explanation is about what you do in Photoshop, the planning and execution starts at the photography stage.

Photography is an amazing way to frame the unique world we see around us. Macro, or ‘close up’ photography offers us with a new perspective and allows us to get right up close and see the smaller world in detailed ways that our eyes cannot.

This tutorial will introduce you to basic macro photography. Most of the images on this site were taken with a Canon PowerShot S3. When accessory lenses are needed, we typically use either a Raynox DCR-250 or a Raynox MSN-202 close-up lens. We'll try to cover various lighting techniques. Some of the images you'll see have obvious mistakes. We'll offer suggestions to keep you from making the same mistakes. Since this site is going to cover mainly basic macro-photography on a budget, we'll try to show you how to get the most of the on-board flash. This means that you'll see lots of different home-made flash diffusers.
