What is Close up, macro and Micro photography? When I got into photography, many years ago, Macro meant capable of shooting an image at a 1:1 ratio at the film. Anything less than this was close up photography and anything more than this was Micro photography. Now I have been saving my pennies to purchase a dedicated Macro lens, an AF Micro-Nikkor 105 mm f2.8D lens. Notice it is now called a Micro not a Macro. My standard lens an AF Zoom-Nikkor 35-70 mm f2.8D lens and it is touted as a Macro lens as it will achieve a 1:4 magnification. When did this naming practice change what are your definition of Macro photography? I just want to throw this open for some input.
