[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by wjstix I was taking pics with my old 35 mm Zenit camera yesterday !! I love being able to shoot digital pics but to get the close-up ability etc. on a digital is (from what I understand) a pretty expensive proposition. [/quote] Most point and shoot digital cameras have a close up mode that allows you to get in close enough for model photography. Digital SLRs can also focus farily close with the lenses that come with them - see the following HO scene, taken with my Digital Rebel XT and it's standard 18-55mm lens: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v409/railfan/Dinerview.jpg[/IMG] You can get in close with most cameras using add-on close up lenses that screw onto the front of the lens just like filters. A set of 3 is around $35.00, not overly expensive. Bob Boudreau
