Macro lenses focuses on one object or person being photographed. Detail is maximized and makes the point of interest life-sized.

For small objects, taking a picture with a macro digital or film camera can make object being focused on easy to identify.

 

 

"Point and shoot digital cameras can have remarkable macro capabilities, but for best results you want a single-lens reflex camera. These allow you to attach special-purpose macro lenses and show you in a bright optical viewfinder what you will get on the sensor." (Philip Greenspun)

Most modern day point and shoot cameras come equip with a Macro lens. This tool is ideal when taking pictures of flowers, pets, and even portraits.
