Macro: Explained: What is macro photography and how can you use it on smartphones timesofindia.indiatimes.com

Macro photography is the art of capturing close-up images of tiny objects to reveal intricate details that are not usually visible to naked eyes. There is a strict rule of macro photography, where the subject needs to match up at a 1:1 scale with the camera sensor. However, most macro photographs don’t stick to this rule. There are smartphones that come with a dedicated macro mode and lens, but you can also capture good macro photographs even without the dedicated mode. Other than smartphones, you can also do macro photography with traditional cameras.
