在Macro鏡下,可以改變人世間的視角.
看到看不見的世界.
改變現有的視界.
加點顏色,光影的變化,
簡單可變成複雜,
美麗也可以捕捉了.

颜色很艳丽...

Nice! They look like man-made structures.

塑料圈...

Macro鏡頭下的迷人視界令人嚮往.

。。。

還是Yuhong利害,
一下子就掀了底.
這東西的確是塑料圈,英文叫slinky.
是兒子小時候的玩具,家裡放了10几年,
搬家時翻了出來,用Macro鏡下玩玩.挺有意思的.

即然漏了餡,再加几張囉!

Don't need to buy a lens - just get a reverse-lens mount (less than $20 on eBay). Take your favorite tele-photo lens, flip it around and attach to the camera using the reverse-lens mount. You have just entered the world of macro photography. However, doing it this way makes picture taking a challenge because there is only 1 focal plain, so the only way to focus is move the camera back and forth. No auto-metering neither - everything is manual. Nice thing is I don't need small F number to blur the background. On a bright sunny day, I can go for F16 and still get a blur background (!)

You can also use an MD-Nikon/Canon adapter and get a MD lens (Milnota) to do the same thing.

謝水隆.

[size=150]太美了，
這兩天在與水隆大師探討，也想買一個Macro的玩一下，canon的有三款，65mm；100mm；180mm都是Macro，他們各有特色，不知哪款比較合適？？？
再請教各位有經驗的大師們。[/size][/quote]

[size=150]thanks kim, i will give it try.you always have some good ideas.[/size][/quote]

謝謝Tim的誇獎,以及Kim對鏡頭反轉微拍的詳細說明.

其實微拍在攝影也自成一系,有人專攻此道,也自成一家.
一般拍攝方式有3,
反轉鏡,延伸管(Lens+extend tube),微拍鏡(macro lens).
三種工具,各有所長,tube最便宜, Macro lens最貴.
另用腳架或不用,
用閃燈/不用閃燈,
室內/戶外.棚拍,均是另外選項.
我是採用:微拍鏡,無腳架,無閃燈(環形燈),很机動但也是最懶的方式.
目前使用3鏡. 60mm/f2.8 . 105mm/f2.8 VR, 150mm/f2.8.
使用時看情況而定,昆虫,花,蝶,遠近.物件.
但一般來說,105mm使用最多,較易使用,建議入手由此鏡開始.
希望大家都來玩微拍,眾樂樂.

If that's not enough to excite you, take a look at the pictures at:

BTW: I don't think you can auto-focus with extend tube neither, correct?

I bought a few very high quality Minolta lenses from eBay (for pennies to the dollar since nobody wants them anymore) and the corresponding reverse Nikon mount for taking macro pictures.

To solve the problem of focusing, I am going to see if I can get a barrel lens extender, or put wheels on my tripod.

With that bee picture, I had to hang the camera upside down, lay flat on the lawn, and manually adjust the position of the tripod, put bait on the floor, then waited for the bee to come. That's was hard work. It prompted me to get a wireless controller, and investigated using remote monitor (control the camera via PC). I got most of the pieces working. I am hoping to catch a macro picture of the hummingbird. Now where is my wild-bird feeder...

Tom, you're absolutely correct, getting a macro-lens is easier.

我幾乎忘了還有一個非常重要的微拍工具,也是最便宜最方便的Point & shot 相机.
Point & shot 相机,幾乎都有微拍功能,也就是"一朵小花"即為微拍.
Point & shot 相机與Macro lens 均有個相同特點,即可非常貼近所拍之物品.最近可達1-1的比例.效果很棒.
這是一般Zoom or fixed lens 無法達到的狀況.
而在Kim介紹的相片有些是超過1-1,則非得用Tube (數個相疊)才可做到.
太大的微拍,有時巳成了顯微拍,多數得在室內,棚內,在可控制的光線下才可能做到.這又是個另類的作法.
昆虫類由於沒表情,死,活無差別,許多均在棚內完成.但此類並非我所好.
我個人較喜歡的是在自然光下拍攝,最多在夜間用環形閃光輔光,在玩微拍時能接近大自然的方式是我一直樂此不疲的原因.
說了許多,是想拋磚引玉,引起大家對微拍的注意及興趣,就當作是野人獻曝吧!
