I own a Stylus 1030 ". How is the super macro as I take a lot of macro shots for work?

A few weeks ago I was hiking in a state park and came upon a wooly bear caterpillar out enjoying the sun. I got down on my belly and photographed this fellow while nearly touching him. In the photo you can literally count the hairs on his body.

It does good for a point and shoot, I dont own a stylus so I cant offer a good comparison.

Yes it is, but you don't recognize it because of its design; remember it's a point and shoot even with macros and does very well with videos too. Grandma Rocks (vote if this was helpful)

Do you intend on doing a lot of macro work? Don't forget that the 1.6 crop factor will make your 100 a 160. Prefer the EF-s 60mm F2.8 on my 7d. Good macro, great portrait lens.

Maria I'm not familiar with the Stylus XZ-2 .I do like the DMW-LV2 it gives some great tools in high light wish it was built in. As an add on I wouldn't leave it on when just travelling as it may come of or break the connections. Wish this could be more of a help.

I really like the iSmooth. It went on fairly easy and you would never know it was there. No problems using the S pen either.

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 don't know how much my pressure varies. I use the pen 100% of my computer time - mostly email, word and pro photography. I can't say that I've seen anything wrong with mine, but then I don't use brushes in Photoshop much or take steps where I vary the pressure a lot.Paul S

I found the macro capability as outstanding. However to get good results you'll need to shoot in manual mode and understand some of the basic setups and lighting conditions. Different situations require using different settings.

That's really interesting. I have used the Corsair M60 mouse with this pad model for nearly 3 years with excellent results at all DPI settings. The only issue is when the mouse crosses over the steelseries logo. The laser does not interact well with the applied white lettering.Edit: I wonder if the M65's laser would interact better with one of the other SteelSeries pads -- they have several different designs.

IMO, the touch options are primarily a gimmick and actually impede workflow. I use the I4, medium and large at work and at home, respectively. They're great tablets and will last a long time, if not abused. I bought a Bamboo Pen and Touch, just to see if I would like touch options or incorporate them in into my workflow. I did not. My coworker has a PPT, medium. She keeps the touch features disabled. So, PPT and I4s are both great tablets, but the touch features don't really add any value, just keep that in mind while shopping for the right price.

Going from the Wacom Intuose (previously the bamboo) to the Intuos Pro was every bit worth it. Some may not realize just how much of a difference there is between 1024 and 2048 levels of pressure but it is night and day! The level of control I get out of the pro version blows me away. I don't do work in CS6 as I switched from That to Manga Studio 5 and Paint Tool Sai for my artwork but I am 100% sure it will make a huge difference in PS just the same as those programs. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. If you can afford the Pro, don't waste your money on anything less.

You shouldn't have a problem. Also, this is a great stylus. Well worth the chedda.

I have been using the ViewSonic touchscreen for about a year. It works okay but you still need the mouse for some things. I've never tried to use a stylus. No reason why it shouldn't work. It works with any impedance screen.

If you don't absolutely need macro, go for the 135. I like it way better for portraits. I actually just purchased he 100L macro but it is specifically for newborn details and wedding details. I'll keep my 135 for portraits every time.

I've been using it for taking class notes on an iPad and iPad mini for about a year and a half, and it's my favorite stylus. I liked using the Adonit Jot about the same when I tried it for a couple months, but the clicking annoyed me and it scratched my screen, so it was back to the Maglus for me. It's very accurate and responsive, and I've never had problems with having to hold it at any particular angle. Everyone likes different types of stylus, but for me this one is perfect for taking notes.

Hi Tommy-boy! My apologies for the delay in my reply. I've been trying to do a bit of research for you as I am not too familiar with the Surface RT. I have read quite a few comments in forums online and this comment stood out to be to be very true when it comes to all stylus pens: "I have found that you just have to experiment. All capacitive stylus feel a bit clumsy and weird. So it might just be a bit of chance to find one you like among cheaper and more expensive ones." Ultimately, it's a matter of preference. Many customers buy our thin-tipped pens for the precision and are very pleased. We get just as many customers who begin thinking that the fiber tips will be too wide, but then realize how great they are despite the width because the fiber is known to be more responsive than rubber. Again, I think it's a matter of preference and may have something to do with the responsiveness of the devices as well. My recommendation is almost always our fiber-tipped pens because of their responsiveness. I always tell customers not to be turned away from the fiber because of the width, but if you are certain you need/want a smaller tip, than the thin-tipped pens might be the way to go. We just started selling fiber tipped pens with replaceable tips (like our thin-tipped pens) as well, which you can see here: http://www.amazon.com/Capacitive-Replaceable-Micro-Knit-Lanyards-Cleaning/dp/B00K4NVRR8 Those would be my personal recommendation. Here are some other great options as well:
