the power of the closeup. Nice!
Yes, the macro works very fine on the Pentax Optio_S12... All my pics are done with it. The Nikon D80 sucked somehow...maybe due to the standard 55-135 objective...no macro at all...
Thanks - trying to get that shot, i nearly broke my spine...had to reach close to it, stretching myself, lying on my belly to get a shake-free shot with a compact cam ;)
