Q about 'macro' camera settings

If you really want to OD on info and "get ready" for your next camera- go online to the website of the manufacturer.

Most post in their entirety the Instruction Book for their various cameras. My last Panasonic came without its IB. I went to the Panasonic site and found it - all 148 glorious pages-.

It is saved to my hard drive now, and being an analog guy, I printed out about half of it for
easy reading and reference.

You could check out the various features that way too.

These other guys are happy with Canon, which are fine cameras. I recenly upgraded to
a several years old Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ 28, with a Leica zoom lens of phenomenal range.
It has about every feature you could ever use.

This one was $50, with battery and charger, no card. There are lots to choose from, you can't go wrong with this one either. I'm very happy with initial results and ease of control.
