I should have made myself clearer. You mentioned the following.

I know from past experience of using a regular camera that doing macro shots
can be tricky. The close up shots of my city didn't come out particularly
well because I forgot to aim high.
If what you say is true and the image in the view finder isn't always what
will appear in the downloaded pic (particularly with close up shots) I may
have to resort to downloading close up pics and seeing how they turn out.
That's one of the reason's I'm going digital rather than with flim. I'm
able to check the quality of the pics immediately. Plus the fact that I can
better manage the post production process. With the number of pics I'm
hoping to take it will probably work out a lot cheaper in the long run as
well.
