I’m also using a couple of Helping Hands clamps to position the subject. I took another table-top tripod and put a Lume Cube as a single source of light. I set it up on a simple table-top tripod. I’m using a Sony α7R IV with the Sony 90mm f/2.8 G Macro lens. Photo by Mahesh Thapa ( Sony α7R IV, Sony 90mm f/2.8 G Macro lens.

Let me first share with you the equipment I used and how I set everything up. The image below, for example, was made with a flower petal, a drop of water and a single rose. I’m referring to shooting through a single or a few droplets of water to frame something special beyond it. I’m not talking about taking pictures of plants with water sprayed on it. Recently, I discovered the magic of water droplet imaging. I love macro shots of flowers, but I wanted to do something different. If you can learn a little bit of that from me, then I’ve accomplished my goal. However, I do think it’s the process that’s most important. None of the ideas I present are novel and so many creators have brought them to light much more elegantly than I am about to. "With my Sony α7R IV & Sony 90mm f/2.8 G Macro lens, sound knowledge of photography fundamentals and a few homemade tools, I’m trying to create some photographic art on a small scale."īecause I’m so new to macro, I’ve been doing a ton of research online, so you won’t have to. I hope you’ll join me as I try to set up and photograph everyday things I find in my home and backyard. However, sometimes I feel it’s equally helpful to get the perspective of a novice and ride along on the journey of discovery and synthesis.

There is no substitute for learning from a master ( like this Macro Quick Start Guide by macro pro Caroline Jensen). With my camera and a macro lens (I'm using a Sony α7R IV and the Sony 90mm f/2.8 G Macro), sound knowledge of photography fundamentals and a few homemade tools, I’m hoping to create some photographic art on a small scale.

This is the first of a series of tutorials where I’ll share my journey into everyday macro at home with you. I’m definitely not a macro shooter by design, but necessity has made me into one.

And, the lens has built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization for compensating for camera shake at all focusing distances.During these times of social distancing, I’m discovering new ways to stay creative within my own home.

On top of this, the focusing ring slides for immediate switching between manual and auto focusing. Users also have direct access to a focus hold button and focus range limiter for further optimizing the lens’ performance in certain situations. The lens also boasts a fast f/2.8 aperture for controlling depth of field and working in less-than-ideal light as well as a Nano AR coating that help eliminate ghosting and flare.Ĭritical to macro is accurate focusing, which is assisted by the speedy Direct Drive Super Sonic wave Motor present in the 90mm lens. As a G series lens, it perfectly balances sharpness and bokeh through the use of various specialized elements, this ensures highly detailed images, with smooth out-of-focus areas, and an absolute minimum of aberrations. Get up close and personal with the 1:1 magnification ratio of the full-frame compatible FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS Lens for Sony’s E-mount cameras.
