Why are macro lenses sharper?
A magnification ratio of 1:1 means that the ratio of the subject size on the sensor plane is the same, or greater than the actual real life size of your subject. That’s what makes macro lenses able to take those super sharp, close up images of things like insects.
Can you use a 100mm macro lens for portraits?

What does 105mm lens mean?
the larger number, 105mm, represents the focal length when you “zoom in” on a subject. 35mm times three = 105mm, therefore this is called a 3x zoom.
