Answer:
The distance 2f is special, because it means that the image is the same size as the object. As you move the object closer, the image recedes and gets bigger, See Greg Lehey's answer to What is the focal length of a converging lens when an object is placed 45 cm away from it and a real and very magnified image is formed?:
For example with a 450 mm lens, an object distance of 500 mm will give 4x magnification. At 480 mm it’s 15x, at 460 mm it’s 45x, at 451 mm it’s 450x
