Photography Terms

Istilah-istilah yang biasa digunakan dalam dunia Fotografi :
 
LS:
Singkatan dari longshot. Dengan lebih mendekatkan objeknya, shot ini tetap masih memberikan sudut pandang lebar tetapi sudah mulai mengarahkan perhatian pada objeknya dengan memisahkannya dari latar belakang yang mungkin mengganggu.

MACRO:
Makro. Pengertiannya dalam fotografi adalah sarana untuk pemotretan dari jarak dekat. Fotografi makro akan menghasilkan rekaman (pada film) yang sama besar dengan benda aslinya (1:1), atau paling kurang separuh dari benda aslinya (1:2), namun demikian pada lensa-lensa jenis zoom yang mempunyai fasilitas untuk menghasilkan rekaman seperempat dari benda aslinya (1:4) juga sudah bisa dikatakan makro.
