Macro Lens
Macro photography is extreme close-up photography. This style of photography requires lenses that can take detailed and razor sharp images, usually of very small subjects, in which the size of the subject in the photograph is greater than life size. This type of photography therefore requires world class lenses that can create sharp images capturing smaller details even with the obvious obstacles. It is a professionally used macro lens for dslr camera. The Sigma 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3 Macro DC OS HSM Contemporary Lens for Nikon is equipped with a 1:1 magnification ratio, a maximum aperture of T2.0 and an optical design developed specifically for macro work. Therefore the Carl Zeiss Macro lens is easily able to capture detailed shots with brilliant life like vibrancy. The use of aspherical lens surfaces and exotic glass types with anomalous partial dispersion greatly reduces chromatic aberration like colour fringes. Modern optical design techniques ensure the optimal light path for reduced stray light and minimized geometric distortion.
