Excuse me, photographer: What is the specific concept of macro? Some netizens said that macro means that only the camera is close enough to the target and the people who are simple and profound can call it macro. Macro actually has nothing to do with the distance between the camera and the target, but only with the concept of magnification, which refers to the magnification of objects and images on the photosensitive original. The larger the magnification, the better the macro effect. For example, if you shoot a fly, if the magnification is 1: 1, then the photosensitive original just holds the image of a fly; If the magnification is 2: 1, the photosensitive original can only hold the image of half a fly; If it is 10: 1, you may get a clear picture of one eye of the fly. Some zoom lenses produce magnification at the minimum focus, so the camera should be closer. Some zoom in at telephoto, so the camera will be farther away from the target.

This is also the reason why the macro of many DCs is stronger than that of SLR: because the original size of DC is smaller, it is easier to obtain 1: 1 or even more effects. Limited level. I guess it's still a little hard for you to understand.
