This macrophotography guide from Masterclass gets into the basics for beginners. If you’re serious about getting better close-ups, you will need a special lens for your camera. For those just starting out, a macro lens with a focal length of 100mm to 150mm is recommended.
Of course, you can also take some impressive close-ups with your phone with no special equipment needed. Smartphone cameras get better with every model, but if you don’t have the latest and greatest, a clip-on macro lens for your phone can help.
