Macro photography may also be accomplished by mounting a lens in reverse, in front of a normally mounted lens of greater focal length, using a macro coupler which screws into the front filter threads of both lenses. This method allows most cameras to maintain the full function of electronic and mechanical communication with the normally mounted ...
A macroscopic view of a ball is just that: a ball. A microscopic view could reveal a thick round skin seemingly composed entirely of puckered cracks and fissures (as viewed through a microscope) or, further down in scale, a collection of molecules in a roughly spherical shape (as viewed through an electron microscope).
Macro (computer science), a set of instructions that is represented in an abbreviated format; Macro instruction, a statement, typically for an assembler, that invokes a macro definition to generate a sequence of instructions or other outputs; Macro key, a key found on some keyboards, particularly older keyboards.
A parameterized macro is a macro that is able to insert given objects into its expansion. This gives the macro some of the power of a function. As a simple example, in the C programming language, this is a typical macro that is not a parameterized macro, i.e., a parameterless macro: #define PI 3.14159
By contrast, macro photography (short for macroscopic photography) is a term used to cover photographs where the subject appears magnified (greater than life size), strictly speaking at the film plane but in practice when reproduced as a print or on a screen, generally in the range of x1 to x10 magnification; while a Macroscope is also a ...
The microcosm–macrocosm analogy (or, equivalently, macrocosm–microcosm analogy) refers to a historical view which posited a structural similarity between the human being (the microcosm, i.e., the small order or the small universe) and the cosmos as a whole (the macrocosm, i.e., the great order or the great universe).
In photography, angle of view (AOV) [1] describes the angular extent of a given scene that is imaged by a camera. It is used interchangeably with the more general term field of view . It is important to distinguish the angle of view from the angle of coverage , which describes the angle range that a lens can image on a given image sensor or ...
Manasseh Wepundi noted the difference between "the unit of analysis, that is the phenomenon about which generalizations are to be made, that which each 'case' in the data file represents and the level of analysis, that is, the manner in which the units of analysis can be arrayed on a continuum from the very small (micro) to very large (macro ...
