Macro or Micro?

#1 Post by Chas » Fri Jul 30, 2021 8:48 pm

I am always slightly curious whether reflected light photos even if they are taken through a microscope are considered to be macrophotography???
Here is a stacked photo taken with a bloomed 16mm Beck objective through a Beck 3228 [with a very wrong tube length!] :

The typical informal and blurry dividing line is around 5x.
