Benefits of Using a Macro Lens
The images in this post were taken with my trusted Canon 65 mm f/2.8 1-5x super macro lens, my go-to tool for capturing the fine details of small flora and fauna. This manual-focus lens allows me to work up close and magnify the tiny textures and structures of the flower, turning each shot into a botanical artwork. Its extreme magnification capabilities bring out details that are usually hidden to the naked eye, revealing the captivating intricacies of the flower.
