Photomacrography: The Magnified image from 1x to 20x

Catalog description

This course will include specialized camera and illumination techniques required to produce photographs of the unseen world utilizing high magnification. Images will be made in the magnification range of 1:1 – 20:1 (at capture) using various types of camera systems. Lighting, applied optics, subject management techniques as well as extended depth of field methods will be evaluated in theory and practice. Hardware and software solutions, such as focus stacking, will be explored and applied to contend with the unique challenges of photographing under high magnification. **Fee: A facilities fee for non- SPAS and non-SOFA students is required for this course, in addition to materials fees.**
