Record 3 2004-09-09

English

Subject field(s)
  • Photography
DEF

CONT

Macrophotography ends and photomicrography (with microscope lenses) begins at about 10 X diameters.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Photographie
DEF

Photographie qui, à la prise de vue, fixe une image de l'objet en grandeur nature ou faiblement grandie, permettant un fort agrandissement au tirage.

CONT

La macrophotographie est utilisée pour donner une image plus grande que nature de petits objets.

OBS

[Photomacrographie] devrait être préféré à «macrophotographie», dans la mesure où «photomicrographie», qui désigne une technique voisine, fixant une image très grossie de l'objet obtenue par le microscope, a définitivement remplacé «microphotographie», usité aujourd'hui dans un autre sens.

Record 4 1998-12-14

English

Subject field(s)
  • Photography
DEF

A lens for focusing on an object that is very close to the camera.

CONT

[One approach to taking close-ups] is the use of special lenses called macro lenses. Such lenses have two advantages: 1) They are optically corrected for close distances, to produce sharper images than regular lenses, which are optically corrected for greater distances. 2) Some are manufactured with built-in lens extension focusing, so that they focus up to magnifications of 0.5 x or 1.0 x without the need for accessory extension devices.
