2. Take Your Food Photography to
the Next Level
In photography, the
right camera lens
is everything.
If you’re a professional
food photographer or
blogger, or are simply
trying to take your food
photos beyond Instagram,
we’ve got suggestions for
the best lenses for food
photography.

3. Macro Lenses
Every food photographer
needs a good macro lens
in their arsenal.
Macro lenses allow
photographers to capture
details in dazzling clarity.

4. Canon 60mm Macro Lens
The Canon EFS 60mm Macro Lens
is a lightweight 60mm macro
lens. With a floating inner focus
system, 90mms of working
distance and life-size (1:1)
magnification, this lens will
brilliantly capture your dish’s
gooey, saucy steaminess.
Compatible with Canon EOS Digital
SLR Cameras with EF-S mounts,
including the Canon Rebel T4i, and the Canon EOS 6D.

5. Canon EF 100mm
The Canon EF 100mm macro lens
is in another dimension altogether.
With 4-stop correction to compensate
for camera shake, food photographers
can move through their shoot with
ease, capturing stunning close-ups,
without a tripod.
The Canon EF 100mm macro lens is
compatible with any Canon digital SLR camera.

6. Nikon 85mm Micro Lens
The Nikon 85mm 3.5 micro lens with
internal stabilizers allows for the
1:1 capture of texture, detail and
color variation with a lightweight
lens for sharp shooting at slow
shutter speeds.
Compatible with Nikon Digital SLR
cameras, including the Nikon D3100 DSLR.

7. Nikon 105mm Micro Lens
For food that’s ready for its extreme close-up, there’s
the Nikon 105mm micro lens. This macro
lens brings Nikon’s VRII image
stabilizers to the resolution of
105mms. Plus, this lens can
pull double duty as an everyday
lens – producing stunning photos
no matter what you’re shooting.
Compatible with all Nikon Manual Focus,
Auto Focus or DSLR cameras.

8. Standard 50mm Lenses
Of course, to tell the full story, you
still need a standard lens. For
this purpose, it’s all about the glass.
Nikonites have the Nikon 50mm 1.4 lens
while Canonites get the Canon EF 50 mm 1.4 lens,
both excellent lenses for food
photography – or anything
else you might get into.
