Q about 'macro' camera settings

[sheepherder]

More experimenting; morning shots, bright but cloudy, beige towel.

First is 'daylight' white balance setting; second is ISO 80 setting; third is daylight and ISO 80 settings.

Doesn't look all that different, still have to Gamma correct three times to see any detail.

The 'Auto' settings don't look any worse than the manual settings, so that idea was a bust (for this cheap camera anyway).

But at least now I know how to lessen the 'bent' effect.

Could you please post a picture as it comes directly from your camera, without any kind of correction applied?

Dwight -

I'll take another tomorrow as I've deleted all the 'raw' pics so far.

They come out of the camera at 2304 x 1728, btw. Pixels. Too big for here.

You can reduce the size by setting the camera so, would save an extra step.

Also do try the grey background, it does wonders; and a smooth
background will be less visible than a towel. JMHO.
