Works good but if you take a shot like this it can't focus from the part closest to you and the back of the obect you are trying to shoot

If you can adjust shutter speed, you could try a slower shutter speed, but you would need a tripod to prevent motion blur.

its not going to, macro setting has a narow depth of field so if you focus on the back corner the front corner will be out of focus.

I know this constitutes a thread highjacking, but... If you move back a little further from the subject, focus on the center of the subject then take the pic, the car will come out all in focus. You can then use photoshop to cut the pic down so all the non-car areas are removed, and resize. Exact techniques vary from camera to camera, but this is the basis of how I've been taking model pics for years.

that will work, if you back up too far you will have to take it out of macro mode though.

you could bring it over to my house if you really want, ive beeen looking for a reason to actually build a small studio in my basement anyway.

Highjackers

I think thats what i will do from now on.
Its a 4.0 mega pixel camera but the viewing sceeen sucks and i can never tell if the shots are good ones till I load them to my laptop
