What's your setup

[barrettsline]

What do you use to take photos?

I generally use a Canon EOS Rebal XS with an L-Series 100 mm macro mostly.

I use a Canon PowerShot SD880 IS (digital elph) with digital macro. That macro can get some amazing closeups.

Bought my first camera just last week. Canon Powershot S95. I like it cus its affording me the opportunity to start learning how to operate in manual mode successfully, but without having to ahead and dive right in.

iPhone was the only camera until last week

Hey just an FYI, I bought a book a while back and have just now really sat down and read it. It's called understanding exposure. It has allot of great information, tips and exercises. Might be worth looking into, I know I found it useful.

Might check it out!

I've been reading online. Took my first macro shot that I thought I could be proud of last night... sadly, it's just of the red bubble part of a $2 metal hanging thermometer lol. But hey, I got the aperture down! wooooo

[barrettsline]

It all about practice.

I'm using an ancient Olympus 3030-Zoom camera. It was hot stuff when it first came out, but now it's just old.

What I have to do is take the pics in the largest setting possible and then reduce them back down. That helps clear up the graininess that I normally get.

It has a bracket feature that suppresses the flash light and takes 5 pics, each with a different exposure setting, which I find very helpful. I usually find one of the 5 pics is better than the rest so that's the one I use. Whenever I get a new camera, I really hope to get the same bracket feature again.

I've never had a nice camera. I don't feel like I need one. I take picture of my Fish with My Wifes I-pad.

I use a Panasonic DMC-FZ7 micro four thirds camera.

I'm using a Nikon D7000 with either Tamron 90mm 2.8 SP Di Macro or Sigma 150mm 2.8 HsM EX non-OS Macro. I usually use them with Kenko AF tubes.
