Joseph Clemens Posted July 5, 2006 Report Share Posted July 5, 2006 Canon PowerShot G2. Only 4 megapixels, but still fairly good. Frustrating though that some colors are off and very difficult to correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacoche Posted July 5, 2006 Report Share Posted July 5, 2006 Nikon D70 + Nikkor 60mm Micro 2.8D + 2 speedlights SB-R200 (Nikon). A small fly (crop almost 100%) : Some of my other pics with the same equipement here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazz Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Pentax Optio SVi. In addition to the S5 models it has both time and aperture priority, as well as some other manual functions. I now rarely use my analog SLR (Pentax MZ5n -that of course makes better photos) since taking pics became so easy with a digicam. Just out of interest, what flower is that?

petesredtraps Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 I've been thinking about getting a" Canon powershot S3 is" however,in a couple of months the S5 is coming out.I'm thinking ,if I hang on till then the S3 may drop considerably in price,the super-macro on this camera is supposed to be great. Your opinions please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrispy Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Some great pictures - I have a Fuji FinePix S5600 5.1 megapixel. Am quite pleased with it especially since I have just bought a new manual. The next day my wife found the old one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vash Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 S5 is quite expensive, I believe Olympus SP550 is more worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chug Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 I use a Nikon D80 with a 105mm Macro lens with VR and an SB-600 flash gun. When all together its around 1.6kg's of camera equipment to hold when trying to take photos of little tiny things. If I find a 100% crop, ill show you. Above shot is not, its a small image of the full sized one. If you wish to see the full sized image, click here.. Drosera Image. Then click on the 'All sizes' button and click on the orginal link. It will then load up the orginal image which is around 4 meg or so. Not the best shot to show, but it will do. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-=Joel=- Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 To use your macro facility well, make sure you have a tripod or stable service in which to put the camera on. A decent amount of lighting and using the 2second timer to reduce shake would also be recommended :) Joel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
