Does Canon 18- 135 lens have macro shooting function?

First, answer lz's question. The magnification of 1:4 is less than 1: 1. For example, our magnification is 1 times, so the magnification is called 1: 1, and the magnification of 2 times should be called 2: 65438+. Obviously, although the magnification of macro photography in the world has been as wide as 1:4, this magnification is still too small compared with professional macro photography.

The following is Baidu Encyclopedia's explanation of macro photography: "Macro" refers to close-up shooting with a large magnification, and the human eye often can't see the object close to 15cm, and the optical school of professional macro lens is designed according to the needs of close-up shooting. According to German industrial standards, the imaging scale is greater than 1: 1, which is called macro photography. The definition in the American Dictionary of Contemporary Photography is: "Photography with the image ratio of 1: 1 or above". The proportion we say here refers to the proportional relationship between the size of the negative image and the real thing. The maximum shooting ratio of the standard lens of 35mm camera is1:10. As a matter of fact, it is internationally recognized in the photography field that the images with the ratio of1:1:4 belong to macro photography, while those with the ratio of10:1~ 200:1belong to macro photography.

Lz uses 18- 135 lens, and the magnification is 1:4, but its recent shooting distance is 0.4m, which is too far, so the shooting effect is far from the level of professional macro lens, and the imaging level of this entry-level lens at the maximum focal length is also very limited.

If lz is macro in a broad sense, as long as it is close enough. However, the deeper macro photography has high requirements for all aspects, and I hope lz will continue to understand it after having a deeper understanding of photography.
