How do you take closeups of objects, such as knick knack, jewelry, small objects? Thank you. Newbie

Turn on the camera. On the right side of the func center button there is an image of a flower. Hit that flower. A two layer image will appear at the bottom of the screen. It has Micro on the first layer followed by ON or OFF. Hit the image of the flower again to make it toggle between ON and OFF. After having the one you want hit the func button. If you selected Mocre ON a small green flower should appear on you main screen. That indicates the Micro mode is active.

The camera takes photos pretty quickly, the object needs to be in view of the "eye" and the pictures are not real clear;however, my preteen loves taking photos of her besty friends and pets. The videos are fun for her, also.

It has a macro setting for closer up pic but if you true super close macro you will need to use a camera with interchangeable lens. You can set it to continue to take pics as long as you hold down the button.

I have the same question! I am looking for something to scan the old black and white negatives- larger ones than 35mm. Have you found a scanner that will do that, mt gal? If you do, can you let me know at dlamp3300@aol.com ? Thanks

I have a question about this model as the details are not available in the product specs for this model as they are for the others. Does this model have a digital macro setting? I can see on the camera itself that there is a macro setting, but I need digital macro for taking close up shots of jewelry! Thanks!Amanda

I don't believe it has the capacity to take more than a couple of frames also it is not good for close ups which is why I returned mine; I need detail pics for jewelry and it was not to good at close ups just got blurry pics. Hope this helps you.

I am a home inspector and I need to take close-ups of chimney flashings or other details on roofs that I cannot reach. I can zoom in and the pic looks like I was a few feet away from the target (no tripod). I use it everyday and it hasn't disappointed. I bought two and keep a spare in the car. The macro is just as good.

Lauren; I'm no expert but, I take photo's of my wood carvings and things to sell like firearm collection's which are shiny, and tricky. First, try the available lighting that you have and look up on "you Tube" for an endless videos, & how to ? also These lamps are OK you really can get creative by watching the Video's of others and look at the # of past Viewers, saves Time. Also Adorama.com is the Largest Dealer in NYC and fast. It's Fun once you learn how light & shadows work ! ex. One was Photographing a Crystal Glass and using a shadow box, (look that up) by putting a light underneath this glass, all the detail came alive. Good Luck Warren

Sorry I'm not familiar with those items. If you'd like me to take pictures or answer other questions I'd be happy to try and help.

I'm a neophyte but I've found it easy to use. I just redecorated my home and it took crisp shots of my interior. Buy a large memory card for it and a case as they're not included and you'd be good to go.

I have not used the close up feature to respond with any helpful information. However, I did try to use the feature and did not get as good a result as I wished for. But was experimenting and had not gotten a good knowledge of the settings for the best results. I did take some good landscape and People" pictues while on vacation, and liked the results.

I found that you can do small adjustments before scanning, mainly exposure, but I do more once I've uploaded it to my computer. The exposure adjustments are pretty good though.

You can get within four or five inches of most still subjects and get a good shot. The lighting can sometimes be a challenge indoors. I experiment with flash/no flash to get what I need. :^)

It's awesome. Funny because before I posted this answer I took some macro shots first, with and without flash, and both came out nice. I took a photo of a half dollar coin and you can see the intricate details in it when I zoomed in on the shots I took.

Awesome . I'm a collector and I restore and reuse and I had forgotten what technology has done to cameras . I take a pic it comes out and I'm in love :) lol Enjoy

Depending on the lens you get, it takes wonderful close ups. My wife uses the 55mm lens that is standard with the camera, but she says that the 10 to 55mm would be better!

The pictures are actually pretty good. They are good in distance as well. Hope this helps.
