I have aSony digital DSC-W5 camera. Do you know how to or if this camera has the capability to take closeups. Close enough to read the serial # or stamping on a Luger? Any camera experts? Thanks

This website has the specs on that camera and it says it can focus as close as 6 cm...

Check you instruction book on macro settings.
