macro setting correct?

also, it seems like some cameras can't zoom when in macro mode

oh... do you *have* a macro mode? that lets the camera accurately focus on stuff that's like 6-18" inches away (16 - 50cm)

pandinus · Jun 15, 2005

yea, i use my macro setting, and zoom. the trick is lighting. macro requires good lighting.

this guy is hard to get a decnt photo of!

And although it's hard to judge the actual length of them, you can see the length of the teeth. My guess is it's a boy!

And a good lookin' little guy at that! :worship: :drool:

G. Carnell · Jun 16, 2005

yea and a very young one at that! good buy

(old speicmens normally have worn pectines

)

everyone loves a show off when it comes to pics like that. absolutely awesome pics ... now I hate you.

im using a sony cybershot dsc-p30. could be worse. its got macro and everything ... even an mpeg maker. I just havent mastered lighting I guess. anyone wanna teach me macro photography and lighting 101? I bought it for my car dealership so ive never had to worry about proper lighting and macro photos.

hi
i have the P-92 or w/e its called, so very similar to yous i think (10cm macro)

i found it takes better pics when outdoors, though i still cant get good pics ;(

TheNothing · Jun 16, 2005

i use the P73
right in between the both of you...

OneSickPuppy · Jun 16, 2005

ive got a few good pics ... about 1 in every 10 turns out good. I need to get a better understanding of lighting obviously. since a percentage of my pics turn out pretty good and 1% turn out stunning, i think its the user, not the camera. maybe kidnapping pandinus until he teaches us how to take good pics would work better than classes.
