MACRO SHOTS QUESTION

A P&S _can_ take good macro photos. But it may or may not be able to get a good photograph of any given object that you need an image of. When *everything* is right, the P&S does well, but on normal days when not quite everything is perfect you will do a *lot* better with a DSLR and assorted accessories. Well bear in mind, it also depends on the skill level of the person holding the camera and the their ability to use the tools given them. I would highly doubt that someone who puts a Canon 5D in "Green box" mode and snaps shots with a macro lens is going to get anything that's much different from a good P&S in macro mode. Likewise, if someone looks at the macro image from a P&S and says "hey, that's good enough," then they probably aren't going to benefit, for their own use anyway, from a dSLR with the right glass. And if that's what they want, then hey, more power to them because they won't have to spend thousands to get the quality level they're looking for. There was a time when I said the same thing about P&S cameras. Now, I know better, and know that *for me*, shelling out the bucks is worth it. The OP may, someday, know better too. Or, he or she may remain fine with what they have, and more of their money will stay on their pocket. -- E-mail fudged to thwart spammers. Transpose the c's and a's in my e-mail address to reply. |
