Tip for closed up photography.

[www.go3d.us]

Ok, I have seen many forum members posted many great pictures of their project in close up view. However, some are blurry and it take the joy out of viewing So here is a tip on how to take picture at close range.
Most or all digital camera has built in micro mode that most of us often forgot about.
The micro mode icon looking like a plant/flower. Please see the picture attachment. You can find the micro mode icon located on the control panel or on LCD screen.
When taking picture at close range (maybe 12" or less) just press the button and you are in micro mode. On some camera if pressed twice will go into super micro mode. In super micro mode the camera has to be real close to the object for like 1".

Hope this help.
Thanks

Great tip HT!! Also one might need a tripod to steady the camera..

For close-up photography, use macro mode or a macro lens, ensure good lighting, and stabilize your camera with a tripod to capture sharp details. Adjust the aperture (low f-stop) for a pleasing depth of field!
