Key Points In Close Up Photography:
1. Depth of Field: in close up photography, depth of field is very limited. This means that sharpness will be difficult to obtain.
2. Movement: movement of either the subject or camera becomes very apparent in close up photography. The slightest move can affect the sharpness of the photo.Flash can be used to reduce the effects of movement in the photo.
3. Working Distance: in close up photography, the space between the front of the lens and the subject, is very important for live subjects.Dangerous or easily frightened animals are easier to photograph using a greater working distance and a longer focal length.
4. Automatic Flash Exposure: the automatic flash exposure may prove to be inaccurate in close up photography. When at very close working distances, the circuitry may be unable to be quick enough to prevent overexposure. This can be fixed by setting the flash to manual or covering the flash head with translucent material.
