Jazzie Joyce Laceda: Macro Lenses

This document discusses different types of camera lenses, their advantages, and disadvantages. The lenses described include normal lenses, macro lenses, telephoto lenses, wide angle lenses, zoom lenses, and prime lenses. Normal lenses provide a true reflection of reality but can make mundane scenes appear monotonous. Macro lenses allow for close-up photography but have shallow depth of field and aperture. Telephoto lenses allow zooming in on subjects but are large and difficult to hold steady. Wide angle lenses capture a balance of foreground and background but don't produce bokeh. Zoom lenses are versatile but lower quality than prime lenses. Prime lenses improve photographic technique but have a fixed focal length.
