You may get many specific camera recommendations from users here, but if you
don't mind doing some research, here's what I suggest:
Go to ActiveBuyersGuide.com:
http://www6.activebuyersguide.com/abg/nav/StartGuide.cfm?CatID=2&PID=0X6X1X2
5769X25c20&RefID=0
They have a wonderful wizard that will allow you to put in needed features
(price range, macro functions, etc.), and it will end up generating a list
of cameras with complete specs that fall within your needs.
Then head over to PCPhotoReview.com, look up the cameras you're interested
in, and see how their contributors rate the cameras. This worked extremely
well for me.

| Unfortunately, there is no option for "takes good closeups." Many (usually cheaper) digital cameras cannot focus any closer than about 2.5-3 feet. I went through the options and it recommended a whole bunch of bargain-basement cameras, but I'll bet (...) (24 years ago, 24-May-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.publish)
