Not the best book for macro photography, June 10, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Macro & Close-Up Photography Handbook (Paperback)
It is the most useless book for macro photography I ever read. The pictures are unsharp and mostly in b&w. You can get the information from this book in every basic photography book ... worthless! The language used is not very easy for beginners and advanced macro photographers know everything described in this book.

A study in macro, August 30, 2008
This review is from: Macro & Close-Up Photography Handbook (Paperback)
Background in macro and close up photography is given to acclamate the reader with some of the technical aspects involved. Equipment and their usage is explained. If you are still into film, you will definitely be satisfied with this section, although the theory can easily be applied to digital. What is covered in the beginning is then applied to practical use later. Lastly, case studies are implied to illustrate the affects of various factors. Overall, a well written, informative and intriguing book with a nicely flowing text from section to section.
