My camera (or else it's me...) sucks when it comes to focusing on macro shots. I've taken advice to not zoom in and instead move the camera closer, etc, but it doesn't really help.
What's the cheapest camera that actually does macros decently?
Or can I get a lens or something? I am sort of assuming my camera doesn't do lenses but that may be a stupid assumption. I don't have my users manual.
So yeah, any help would be FANTASTIC! Thanks! |

Well my A630 is 8 Megapixel
Has all the manual controls youd expect on a dSLR including things like rear curtain flash sync.
It has a flipout and adjustable screen perfect for setting up shots.
It has a macro mode for things as close as 4 CM. (1cm in manual)
ANd it has a manual mode that provides u with a 100% view crop to make sure you have things in focus and provides i believe a 1CM macro focus in manual.
I bought it for 249 dollars but u can get it for 200 elsewhere.

hey!
I have the DiMAGE Z20 and really like the camera.
As far as lenses go, they're kind of hard to find however, a quick google search got me this:
Cheap Macro Lens

hope that helps!
