marco

In class we had workshop on macro photography. We had to take two photos one at half size and one at 1:1. The photo had to be taken with two different cameras so we used a hasselblad and a canon 50D. The 1:1 means that from where the photo is taken and it is measured from corner to corner that is how big the sensor is. In the workshop we were also given equations such as
I
m =-- (for magnification)
O

v= (m+1) f (extension tubes)




(taken with my 50D and 100mm marco lens this is 1:1)

medium format

These photos were taken with the digital medium format cameras at CIT. The brief for the photos were to as if they were taken for "TIME" magazine. Two photos had to be taken one to be used as the front cover and the other for a double page spreed. The photo of Amie is the corporate front cover. The other photo is the double page spreed using the product, when taking this photo we had to make sure that nothing was in the middle so it wouldnt be cut by the gutter. The medium format cameras that we used were Hasselblads, we had it connected to the computer while we took the photos. I found that the amount of detail that was achieved with the medium format cameras was amazing.
