On this basic video tutorial by Canon, photographer Matt Kloskowski takes a look at macro lenses.
What are macro lenses and what are they good for? if you are just getting into photography and want to learn a bit about macro lenses this short clip by Canon is a good starting place (of course it is meant to promote Canon’s own products but keep in mind that other manufacturers have Macro lenses as well – although the Canon MP-E 65mm f/2.8 super macro lens mentioned in the video is actually pretty uniqe).
