1 If the exact magnification must be documented, include a scale in the picture (18). The scale and the subject
must be at the same distance from the camera.
2 The camera contains separate lenses for the magnification. Each lens has the proper focal length for mini-
mum perspective distortion and more working space between the camera and subject, and a small lens aper-
ture for better depth of field.
3 The depth of field, or distance zone within which the subject will be in sharp focus, is limited in close-up
photography. The zone will extend about half its distance in front of, and half behind, the point of sharpest
focus.
Note: The camera has a fixed shutter speed of 1/50 sec.
