James M. Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 caught a couple B.fusca molting and got some o.k. pictures of one of em'. I have a FUJIFILM FinePix A805 8.3 mega pixels it is a descent low cost camera. Used macro setting holding camera free hand and using a 3 led hand held flashlight for a light source. Again not great pix but still fun to look at. This camera will take some extremely great photos now and then. We want to buy a new one real bad but it hurts looking at the price tag of the nice ones we truly want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigtoach Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 A trick i have used in the past with my el-cheepo digi cam, for super super clear macro shots i use a loupe style magnifying glass simply held over the lens. it seems to make the shots much more forgiving using a handheld digi cam.

James M. Posted September 11, 2011 Author Share Posted September 11, 2011 What magnification was the loop? Do you still use the macro setting on the camera? James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtoach Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 The set of loupes I have range from 3x - 10x still using the macro setting. I'll have to post a thread when I get some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
