How good are the macro (close up) pictures? Anybody have any experience with close up pictures using this camera?

About to try. Had to print 142pg manual from the web. Claims shots from 1.2 inches are good. This is a compact, though, not an SLR with specialty macro lenses...

I bought, then returned this camera. Look at the D3300 - a newer and better model. I suggest you try out the kit lens for macro shots before you purchase a specific macro lens.

I think the pic quality is good. The pre setting modes work great. Bought this camera to use in Hawaii and took a lot of pics outside of water and they came out nice. We took a high end dlsr cam but used this one about 80% of the time. FYI the underwater pics were pretty good. Just try not to zoom in on things underwater andale sure you have it on the underwater mode. Hope this helps

I am having issues with auto focus inside and out. Inside it will occur on most settings and outside it happens a lot in manual when I am trying to shoot macros but it happens in other settings as well. Can't figure out if it's something I'm doing or if there is something wrong with this particular camera but it is becoming incredibly frustrating. Any thoughts?

I have the Rebel XTI and I've taken some great close up pictures with the Canon 100mm f2.8 macro. I also have the 70-200mm f/4, 17-55mm f2.8, 85mm f1.8 and the 17-40 f/4, but my favorite is the 100mm macro with the 70-200mm f/4 a very close second.

I have the same lens bro and it went well.But you'll have to use the lens on its longest zoom (135mm) to get the macro effect.It's not a macro lens, but it's quite handy if you need to shoot a big closeup.

Have you tried the ZD710?? I bought one at Walmart also, a few weeks ago. I returned it. I personally didn't like it. I didn't like how noisy the pictures were and they really weren't that sharp. I am not sure if that was just my experience or I had to high of expectations for the ZD710 camera. I also didn't like trying to take any shots when any one was moving because the pictures turned out awful. So anyway, I returned it and am looking for something else.

The quality of the camera itself will produce a clear images. But it depends on the lens that you get for close-up shots. I've got an amazingly sharp photos using a macro lens :)

The macro works great with this camera. I decided to purchased this camera after reading a review by a 'pro' photographer who also show examples of macro shots. Link: http://www.theinspiredeye.net/panasonic-dmc-lf1-camera-review-an-amazing-pocket-multi-tool/#more-2506

I love this camera. It is good for close up macro shots, group shots, scenic shots or whatever. It sets itself up automatically for all of them. Great camera

Yes, all in this series have close up (macro) for capturing images close up. The latest in this series actually has a "fill light" which has a light to fill in shadows or for low or no light situations. All of the cameras are nice. this model has a smaller LCD but is well built and overall a nice investment now that these sell for far less than when first manufactured.

..this camera has very nice Zoom, i use it at work all the time.. as with any cam or scope the longer the focal length the smaller the field of view, and, the harder it is to keep the subject in that FOV.. btw this cam also does Macro images very well, for a point and shoot cam im happy with it.. the Android OS just makes it that much better..

My wife thinks this is an awesome camera, and I'm such a good husband for getting it for her. She is using it indoors for her eBay pictures, so to answer your question directly, yes we find it suitable. I've taken closeup pictures of things just a couple of inches away, thus it has a macro capability for very close work. My wife is very pleased with her FinePix, and had been grabbing it instead of her Canon SLR frequently.

the macro setting isnt exactly the best, most of the time it turns out blurry - works best about 6 inches away, but the super macro mode seems to work better - for as close as about 2-3 inches. I know this probably isn't the most helpful response, but ive only had the camera for about a few days, this is just what ive noticed.

I like the colors just fine. Just make sure you use the proper white balance or else you can get colors that are not accurate...I think this is normal for any camera if proper white balancing is not used. The camera has a wonderful zoom (30x optical) which works well, but for macro, you will need to shoot with it all the way out (1x) and then move the camera close to your subject for the best results. As you increase the zoom, you lose some ability to get close-up, but I've had some wonderful floral pix with this camera.

I have taken some incredible photos with the macro mode...and I photograph insects in the field on a regular basis for my job. The supermacro is simply sent from heaven...it works wonderfully!

I have a question about this model as the details are not available in the product specs for this model as they are for the others. Does this model have a digital macro setting? I can see on the camera itself that there is a macro setting, but I need digital macro for taking close up shots of jewelry! Thanks!Amanda
