I bought it because of it's Macro abilities. The Coolpix 950, = 990, and 995 also have good Macro abilities but are a little less on the = megapixel scale. Also, they are much cheaper! Here is a good website = on camera reviews with user forums: http://www.dpreview.com/ I am still practicing as I have only had the camera a few days. The = most difficult thing that I have found is getting enough light on the = subject as you can put the lens as close as .8 inch from the subject = which tends to allow the camera to throw shadows. If anyone knows of a = good lighting retail source for photography please let me know. Here = are two photos that I just took. The first is my .5 gram slice of Calcalong Creek: http://208.55.105.193/calcalongcreek.JPG This photo is a close-up of NWA 482: http://208.55.105.193/nwa482closeup.JPG So far this is a great little Camera/Computer.
