(...) Maybe... :) Really, though, a fun non-Lego macro thing is insect photography, which really needs a GOOD macro. Here's some example that some guy took using the Fuji. (URL) -JHK (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.publish.photography, FTX)

(...) That's the problem. My parents have completely restricted all buying of the Brick, because they think "I already have enough Lego. Why don't I use it all?" Gosh, am I supposed to use every juniorized brick in my collection, as well as (...) (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.publish.photography, FTX)

(...) Well, this has an AC input jack and a hotshoe, if that's what you mean... (...) The high ISO was very interesting, and I can't wait until I get the camera. (In one or two months, hopefully!) I'm going to try using a few cheap slave flashes (...) (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.publish.photography, FTX)

(...) The Fuji uses 4 AA batteries, so I plan to get (or use my current) rechargable NIMH batteries. It did pretty good on pattery life, too. I believe it lasted over 3 hours, which is very good. (...) Yeah, I usually prefer AA to fancy propiertary (...) (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.publish.photography, FTX)

(...) Yeah, I definently considered the 4500. Only thing I didn't like was the small lens with limited aperatures (you need a small aperature for really close photography) and no hot shoe. But it is a very respectable camera.... (2 URLs) >> (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.publish.photography, FTX)

(...) The Fuji can take extra lenses too, in fact I'm going to try to buy a close-up filter so I can just screw it on and use the camera in normal mode zooming in. This reduces distortion and allows for easier lighting. Yeah, the Olypmus was (...) (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.publish.photography, FTX)

(...) That's an impressive looking camera. Perhaps more than you need for Lego photography. If you've got a good macro mode then high optical zoom isn't as much of a necessity - you simply move the camera closer. You might consider getting something (...)

A jack for an external flash, which allows you to flash the (...) (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.publish.photography, FTX)
