And what do you shoot with, colleagues? The experience of macro photography with affordable digital soap dishes is interesting.

I shoot with a Panasonic DMC FZ5 half-duster.
I don't pretend to be artistic (this is more like a recording tool for me), but something turns out to be wrong.

I take pictures with a Canon A430 soap dish (though mostly plants), see, for example, here: http://herba.msu.ru/shipunov/m-album/mosco...0603/thumb.html

I try sinmat Canon 710 While it turns out poorly... prevents trembling when pressing the button. Here, a more or less successful frame:

How can you deal with trembling, what techniques are there?

I shoot with a digital" soap box " Olympus C-370 zoom: I switch to macro mode, put a magnifying glass to the lens for 5 times (without it, it does not focus from afar) and shoot. Thanks to this combination, you can shoot with a 15 cm 3x zoom (no longer gives out the camera). The result is quite acceptable.

Excuse me, I can't insert the photo, I can only insert 32K, and the photo weighs more...As soon as I figure out what's going on, I'll put it in.

Yes, I remember your photos from your magazine. Quite artistic, in my opinion

although, of course, this is not a simple soap dish))

Dormidont, horror, I filmed Olympusrm S150, it's just a nightmare, there is no normal macro mode, at least from 20cm, and this seems to be preserved even now in some new models! So I also had to apply a lens to the objective, but then it was already possible to shoot from 2 cm and very well, but I had to take a series of pictures because the autofocus misses and you need to aim manually - that is, by bringing or removing the camera(manual focus version smile.gif).
Then I bought a Canon A410, this is definitely a soap dish, but! macro photography is at a height, you can shoot at least from 0.5 cm in the "supermacro" mode, if there was light, the micro-camera also works perfectly, in normal mode, macro photography from a distance of about 5 cm turns out.

Chromocenter It
's strange, why worry so much that smile.gifmy hands are also shaking, but you need to keep your finger on the shutter button at the beginning of preparation for shooting and do not release it after pressing it until the shutter closes. When you release the button, most of the wiggle is created.
Then, it is necessary if you shoot with one rka, which most often happens because zhivnos flies away often if you crawl up to it all holding the camera in two hands, then you need to relax and shoot as if almost on the fly, that is, without aiming for a long time, the longer you hold it in the air, the more your hand trembles.
If the sensor is good and not noisy, then you need to set 200 or 300 ISO and the shutter will work faster.

I shoot the Olimpus SP-700 in macro or super macro mode. I choose an ultra-high level of quality and the "Shaking hands" mode, you can still work on the "Sport" mode. It turns out quite well.

Well, CP700 is not exactly a soap dish. Speech as I understand it about very budget-friendly devices, here's how my A410 smile.gifAnd here's how it turns out:

I have a Canon A610-also from the category of "advanced soap boxes". Macro also pleases, although I'm more on plants, insects I accidentally come across, and then the most lazy smile.gif

I also shoot a Canon A610, more and more from a tripod and dry smile.gif
Today I took a photo in nature, in fully automatic mode, the files were not photoshopped, only some were cropped and resized.
I like the macro potential of this camera smile.gif

here is an example of a photo from Olympus, but in principle it is true that it is bad to shoot. I'll get rich and buy a new one. By the way, which one is better-in terms of price and quality?

Can you shoot a video and then cut the most successful shots?

I think in this case, you can forget about the quality.

A normal camera lens , but there are not enough pixels for stationary shooting of objects smaller than 8 mm.

Consonant, but there are still macro attachments wink.gif
As far as I understand, the analogs (6xx, 7xx) have the same matrix, but the number of pixels is increased programmatically?
And the next normal soap dish at Canona is S3 IS, as I understand it...

And even though I'm a bit distant, I also think so . And it seems to me that these 6xx-7xx do not give anything, only the image processing efficiency drops.

Are there any programs that can improve the quality?

I'm shooting a Nikon Coolpix 5900.

I doubt that you can significantly improve the quality. The source material is not very high quality (the maximum resolution in the video clip for most soap dishes is 640x480)

I'm shooting a Nikon Coolpix 5900.

It's like a tropical looking grasshopper smile.gif
Is it from the Balkans?

02.07.2007 23:24, Konstantin Shorenko

Here is another photo from my Olympus, maybe I adapted to shoot, and maybe the camera is not so lousy

03.07.2007 0:17, lerth

Thank you to everyone who wrote in this thread! I choose a camera for myself, but I don't have enough money at allfrown.gif
In general, I tend to believe that if you look for the optimal price/quality, then somewhere in the power shots...

I want to take a Canon ixus 65, can you tell me what anyone has heard in this regard??

I want to take a Canon ixus 65, can you tell me what anyone has heard in this regard??

it has min. the macro shooting distance is 3 cm, while the Powershot A range has 1 cm
. m. b. due to the fact that they are so pot-bellied... in general, I am inclined to them.

Before this season I shot Canon powershot A80, now I use Canon powershot S3 IS. Quite satisfied.

09.07.2007 0:02, RippeR

main... price...

10.07.2007 16:55, Ilia Ustiantcev

And I shot first 610, then gouged it (but you can fix it), and now I shoot 630 (almost the same, but 8 megapixels, otherwise where 10 is better, where worse). It costs a little more than 7500. Compare: aromia moschata with both.

12.07.2007 13:12, BUTTERFLY

I shot it at home)) Stick insects live with me, so there are a lot of raspberries, and the beetle had to be placed somewhere..

08.10.2007 0:13, lerth

As a result, I bought a Canon PowerShot A460

here is the result: http://molbiol.ru/forums/uploads/post-11402-1191664145.jpg
