Want to buy a used or new (all you can afford) Macro lens.for my nikon f401, I do not know much about it.Help?
Nikon F401 SLR camera I have, Tamron telephoto zoom lens with macro, the objective is good, but I want to purchase a good, powerful and cheap lans, so I can take photos for my cookbook (like the photos in the kitchen books), not knowing what type of lens, and where I buy it? photographers.Please need good advice "Help Me" Thanks in advance, and a promise for 5 stars.
Its not clear to me that you need to be looking at the macro objectives of what is really doing, but you may want something that will give a relatively close. For example, my Canon FD 50mm f3.5 South-South Cooperation without an extension gives half-size images. Since the size Image of 35mm film is 36mm x 24 mm, which means that you are taking a picture of something 76mm x 48mm (3 inches x 2 inches approx.) That's a little less than one serving standard cut bread in half. What is now generally known as macro was once (more correctly) known as a close approach, despite using the term Canon "Macro" to describe their objectives both macro and a focus on its immediate surroundings zoom lens on the FD. How confusing! I have attached some links that may find it useful. You do not say why his current Tamron objective is not appropriate. Depending on your focal length range, my first thought was that probably would have been appropriate.
