This is kind of off topic, but some what related. I sometimes am stunned at the beautiful photography being taken on this forum. I plan on buying a new digi cam because mine is a POS. I would like to see what cameras everyone is using and maybe give me some suggestions, keep in mind i want it focus very well on small detail. Thanks

Hey I have a Sony DSC-W1 and I even got the flakes from the wheel in this pic.(Using the Marco feature will turn really small objects from blurry to crystal clear)

Take in consideration that you could also change the white balance and the aperture to get really good pics.

I use a Sony DSC-P7, look out for these...They are a PIECE OF SHIT! Waste of 300 dollars. Would've rather gone with a Canon or something

Mine didn't even come with the dumb Macro feature

And has soo little options to it!!! Get a Digital SLR camera or something

Something that will break your wallet

But will give good pictures!

I like smilies

PENTAX IST-D (brilliant

, able to take detailed shots

, need to buy a macro lens to do detail shots

, very expensive

)

do not buy a camera made by the "CONCORDE" company, i have one, nice camera for outside shots, or large things, crap for anything closer than two feet in front of it.

If you want to increase the quality of your photos then visit Hiroboys site. He's got some great info there.

I personally use a Nikon Coolpix 995.

I have a FujiFilm Finepix S3000. It's a decent all-round camera.

I have a Minolta DiMAGE X20.

From this:

To this:

With better lighting or using the flash it could even have turned out better, but i just did them quickly now to demonstrate.

I use a Nikon Coolpix E4500. The best camera I have used in it's price range. It has one of the best macro I have used.

This model is less then 2 cm long.

I use a Fujifilm Finepix 2600Z. Nice camera, I mainly use it for close up/model pics because its not as customizeable for pro photography. Its really nice though, I like it. When you have pretty good lighting you get crystal clear photos. Plus it has Macro, and digital focusing.

Just make sure whatever you choose has macro...or its not even worth looking at.

It's fantastic camera.

This helped me to choose a Digital camera, it has sample pictures on each one, prices, reviews etc.

Mine is a Panasonic DMC-FZ20, 12x OPTICAL 46x digital zoom, macro, LEICA 72mm lens with f2.8 in all the range! custom white balance, etc. Under 600 dlls and I'm so pleased with it I couldn't recommend it more!
