Close-Up Photography Tips #3 - What Makes A True Macro Lens?: You might have noticed that many standard zoom lenses claim to offer macro settings. Even so, this does not necessarily mean that these zoom lenses are genuine alternatives to dedicated macro lenses. What exactly is macro photography? This photography genre is simply a photograph of a subject that is shot at a magnification of 1:1 (life-size) or so. Hence, the image of the subject is captured and it appears to look the exact same size as it is in reality, otherwise larger. Try this out yourself. You will notice that even zoom lenses that claim to have 'macro' abilities are not able to produce such results.
