THE MAGIC OF THE CLOSE-UP


HOWARD S. COTTON (Photographic Information Council)


J-J.OW close is a close-up? The amateur photographer is often advised to come in close to his subject. The advantages of


so doing are many. Firstly, the chosen object will not have to face competition


from other features within the viewfinder frame; secondly, added emphasis will be given to it by virtue of the fact that the back­ ground will be thrown out of focus because of the restricted zone of sharpness; thirdly, the negative^image will not have to be so much enlarged, and will therefore retain its definition.

Job Week was to be held from Easter Monday. March 30. until Saturday, Auril 4. and that the annual St. George’s Day service would be in the Parish Church on Friday April 24.

The other refers to adapt­ ing the focal length of the lens to enable it to give sharp focus beyond its normal nearest limit.

of the camera is decreased, and the photographer is able to take pictures of objects that are inches from the camera as opposed to feet. These positive, or magnifying, lenses come in a variety of strengths, and these are denoted by the lens’s “ dioptre number.” A 1-dioptre lens will enable you to work between the limits of 39 inches and 21 inches (assuming the camera can be normally focused between infinity and 4 feet). A 3-dioptre close-up lens con­ denses the normal focusing range still further; with the camera set to infinity, the real maximum limit is merely 13 inches; with the lens mount rotated to the 4 feet position, the new minimum distance is reduced to 10A inches.


NEW WORLD


graphed anything that is closer to the lens than three or four feet, you will be pleasantly sur­ prised at the new world that is opened to you. Small objects such as coins, models, jewellery, flowers and insects can be made to fill the viewfinder frame, and the resulting prints or colour transparencies will show an astonishing clarity of detail.

sharpness, has been mentioned before. This always decreases with the decrease of subject-to- lens distance, and when working at very close distances, it becomes very shallow indeed. For this reason, it is always best to work with a small aper­ ture (large ” f ” number) as this will tend to compensate for it. Most close-up workers like to use an aperture of f / 1 1 , f/16. or even f/22 when photographing objects which are anything but com­ pletely flat. This naturally means that the shutter speed must be lengthened accordingly.

aligned for the lens—and not foi the viewfinder. Owing to the differencr in position between the lens and the viewing win­ dow on most cameras (single- lens reflexes apart) the view­ finder “ sees ” a different view from the lens. Normally, this has little effect, but when work­ ing at very close distances, a completely false impression can


be given. The secret is to tilt tnc camera slightly so that the lens swings in the direction of the


viewfinder. In other words, if the view­


finder is mounted directly above the lens, tilt the camera up­ wards so that the important part of the image is concen­ trated in the lower half of the ’finder. If you are working in a vertical position, it is a simple matter to use a cotton plumb- line to determine accuracy.
