Macro Accessories
Canon announced the release today of the EOS M100 Mirrorless Camera, 85mm f/1.4L IS USM lens, three new TS-E Macro Lenses, and the MT-26EX-RT flash. The lenses range from a popular portrait-length prime that has been elevated to L-series status to a trio of macro tilt-shift optics for perspective control. Complementing the new macro lenses, the flash has been updated with radio triggering and improved power. Finally, there will be a new mirrorless camera, elevating the entry level in Canon's growing EOS M platform.
One thing many photographers learn quickly is that photography can be an expensive hobby. This is especially true if you head into a niche field and need some dedicated tools to get the shots you want. Macro is one of those specialties, and it asks you to purchase a dedicated macro lens that is generally going to be pricier than your standard lenses. Fortunately, the photo world is filled with affordable alternatives to get you started with your close-up experiments.
The trick to high-quality macro images is getting closer to your subject.
