OTish - Good nature camera recommendations?

Trying to photograph spiders today made me realise that I need a better digital camera as I found it impossible to focus on something that big (garden spiders with bodies about three quarters of an inch plus legs are big in my book)! I've got lots of photos of foliage and brickwork with blurry blobs in front. Is anyone able to recommend a decent digital camera for close up photos of little creatures/flowers and the like? I'm happy to spend a few hundred squid for a good one though for that money I'd like a proper viewfinder. Cheers, Jake ================================================== ===== URGling from the less wet end of Swansea Bay in between sweeping up leaves by the cubic metre! www.rivendell.org.uk You need a camera with changeable lenses . The lens is the important bit, not the camera. You need a lens with a "macro" setting. This brings the difficulty that the depth of field might be less than a centimeter in macrophotography. So then you are into tripods etc. Sigma used to do a zoom lens that had a macro setting, maybe they still do Best bet is to get familiar with Adobe Photoshop. Then anything is possible. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macro_photography I have had a bit of a dabble, it's a whole different world. |
