(...) Can I get in on that bet? My Kodak DC215 (a fairly cheap camera, obtainable now for under $250) has a macro mode that lets you focus as close as 8". The regular focus mode (fixed focus) is no slouch either, working from about half a meter to (...) (25 years ago, 24-May-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.publish)

(...) I've worked on "softening" the flash a bit by taping a couple of layers of tissue paper over the flash. I suppose a grey filter could work, too, but tissue is nice and cheap, plus it diffuses the flash a bit. Natural daylight seems to be the (...)

(...) I really like my Nikon Coolpix 950 for taking pictures of Lego. It's got a great feature for taking good shots in low light without flash or even a tripod. This might not be terribly useful for most purposes, but it's great for little shiny (...) (24 years ago, 30-May-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.publish)

The pictures on Karen's web page at (URL) aren't the best we've taken, but they're pretty decent. (I think (...) (24 years ago, 30-May-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.publish)
