A Macro feature allows you to take extreme close-up or panoramic view photos. In the case of my own camera, a Nikon 950 (yes it was very expensive :^( ) It can take closeups from just a few cm away. In this instance the Macro setting has a range of (...) (24 years ago, 6-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Hey Mark. It's apparent that a "macro" feature is sought after among the digital camera models. What exactly does this feature enable a camera to do? I'm thinking about a Kodak DC280...respectable resolution, USB and MAC compatability. I'm visiting (...) (24 years ago, 6-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Yuck! My advice: save up about $300 and you can buy any one of a variety of real nice megapixel cameras with close-up macro and smart card capability. Trust me, it'll be worth it to you in the long run. ~Mark (24 years ago, 5-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Maybe it's time Lego dusted off the larger scale figures found in many sets of the mid 1970's? Since they would fit into the definition of a 'construction toy' even more than the minifigs do, it wouldn't infringe on the 'action figure' license. (24 years ago, 2-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)
