Answer 1

This camera has a Carl-Zeiss lens, which is very good. The camera is really designed to make it easy for non-photographers to take good pictures. So it's not the right tool for your application. However, according to the Sony site, the lens does have a macro mode. There was no indication of the closest focusing distance. That's your best option as it will not be easy to get diopters for this camera. Find out how to use macro mode by reading the manual. You didn't say what you'd be photographing, particularly with respect to how close you will have to get to it. So it may or may not work for you.



In macro photography, all movement is magnified. It is essential to use a tripod or other jury-rigged steadying mechanism with a remote shutter release or the self-timer. You can't get good macro shots in most cases by holding the camera in your hands. Also consider lighting. The camera's flash will be inadequate in most cases because it won't be aimed properly at a very close subject. So use an off-camera flash or some kind of supplemental lighting. The supplemental lighting could be something as simple as a two light bulbs put to the side of the subject and outside of the image area. You will have to correct white balance in post processing if you do this. Lastly, pay attention to the background. Use a neutrally colored cloth or paper board.

The most important ways that the people can combat global warming is getting rid of their older model cars (1979 Buick) because, older cars emmitt more toxic fumes into the air. Its obvious that the more technological advanced a car is, the less harmful gases it emmitts. A car that was built 3 or 4 years ago will be more economy friendly than a car that was assembled 35 years ago. For high populated cities such as New York, Bus and Taxi companys should replace current vehicles with cars that are powered by hydrogen or electricity. Just think, if every major city used the Toyota Prius as taxi's, there would be a decreased level of pollution, and also taxi fares could be drastically lower as well.

Answer 3

think about it... stand back, zoom in, shoot the frame, then crop it back to size. if youre just running a HD resolution on your monitor/tv then its going to fill the frame... i shoot at 12mp... HD tv is 2mp... so as you can see, thats a whole lot of enlargement.



you can cheat, and use a magnifying glass... and photoshop
