Amateur Photographer Magazine

25 January 2025

Close-up and macro photography is a popular and fascinating genre and this week we present a selection of the latest Close-Up Photographer of the Year winners and their tips. We also share a few of the winners from the BJP’s annual Portrait of Britain, while gear-wise we pay tribute to two of the best 35mm compact camera series ever made: the Olympus XA and mju, and we test the Oppo Find X8 Pro.
