Going Deep - Part I - extreme macro photography with infinity corrected microscope objectives

Time to break the 5X barrier…

… and get into high magnification photography using infinity corrected microscope objectives. This is going to be a new frontier for many casual macro photographers. There is a lot of mystery around high magnification photography, and in this video I try to break it down into a few basic principles and show you how to put together a system that will allow you to get very, very close to your subject, without having to take out a mortgage.

The best microscope object for photography (IMHO)

The best microscope object for photography (IMHO)

In this video, I will explain how these infinity objectives are used and I’ll walk you through the entire process of building you own “tube lens” to unlock the power of these amazing optics. There is a great deal of detailed information in this video, which runs almost to an hour in length. But you need to know this stuff to break the 5X barrier, and start going deep!
