This article shares a selection of new images captured using handheld in-camera focus stacking HHFS at the RBG (Royal Botanical Gardens) in Burlington Ontario.
Whenever we go out with our cameras to photograph nature there is a risk that our planned subject matter may not appear. Or, that our anticipated shooting conditions may change. So, some flexibility can come in handy.
The opportunity for ongoing personal experimentation is one of the things that I’ve come to love about digital photography. I did a quick scan through some YouTube video titles after doing a search for ‘photography techniques’. I was not surprised to find numerous videos trying to disseminate ‘must do’ advice.
When I dug a little deeper by searching ‘macro photography techniques’… the videos seemed to become even more dogmatic about following specific techniques at the exclusion of all others.
This 90 mm vs 60 mm macro comparison article provides my assessments of these two lenses based on my in-field experiences using the M.Zuiko 90 mm f/3.5 PRO IS and M.Zuiko 60 mm f/2.8 macro lenses.
This article features handheld macro photographs captured late last week with the M.Zuiko 90mm Macro lens around the house. As I’ve gained more experience through my experimentation with the M.Zuiko 90mm f/3.5 PRO IS Macro lens, my approach to this genre of photography has shifted somewhat.
This article provides my M.Zuiko 90mm PRO IS Macro review and is based on a good amount of field work done over the past 6 or 7 weeks. As regular readers know this is not a gear review website. We only do hands-on reviews of equipment that we actually own and use.
Yesterday I spent some time doing a handheld in-camera focus stacking with digital teleconverter test with the M.Zuiko 90 mm f/3.5 PRO IS macro lens. I also had the M.Zuiko MC-14 teleconverter attached as part of my macro set-up.
I figured if I was going to push myself and my gear… I might as well try to break through a new personal, handheld macro boundary by combining the Handheld In-Camera Focus Stacking function with the Digital Teleconverter. And… and throw in the MC-14 for good measure.
It is important to consider shooting angles and distances when doing macro and close-up photography as these factors impact our images. This article shares some handheld macro images that were captured at a recent visit to the Niagara Butterfly Conservatory. All of the images are displayed as full frame captures without any cropping done to them at all. Photographs were resized for website use.
This article features some handheld test images captured with the M.Zuiko 90 mm f/3.5 PRO IS macro lens, and STF-8 Twin Macro Flash. All of the photographs (except image 22) were created during a short duration visit to the Royal Botanical Gardens (RBG) in Burlington Ontario.
I’ve been continuing to practice handheld focus stacking with the MC-20 teleconverter and M.Zuiko 90 mm f/3.5 PRO IS macro lens. This article features a selection of HHFS (handheld focus stacked) backyard images of some insects and blossoms.
This article features a small selection of jumping spider macro images that were captured handheld using in-camera focus stacking (HHFS) with my E-M1X, an M.Zuiko 90 mm f/3.5 PRO IS macro lens, and an M.Zuiko MC-20 teleconverter.
I’m still in the early stages of my learning curve with this lens. These jumping spider macro photographs should definitely be viewed from a test image perspective. All of the photographs in this article are full frame captures without any cropping. They were resized to 1200 pixels on the width for website use.
