Close-up "Macro" pictures of your smoke
So I started a thread called "Good pictures of your smoke" but I kinda want to restart it. What I was really looking for was for people to take really close up pictures of their smokes (Perhaps with the "Macro" setting in your camera's). Maybe showing some Plume or whatever. So here we go. I'll start with a few I've taken

Re: Close-up "Macro" pictures of your smoke
great photos Estephano. It's not often that I'm in a spot to take a good macro of the cigar that I'm smoking, but I will keep that in mind for this thread in the future.

Re: Close-up "Macro" pictures of your smoke
A macro lens on a DLSR just allows for a closer focusing range. So you can really get up and close to the subject. I guess the point and shots do a good job of this anyways. Nice pics btw.

Re: Close-up "Macro" pictures of your smoke
Hehe thanks! I really want an SLR-type camera. I can't use the point-n-shoot setting on my digi cam because the selector-wheel is broken so I can only use the manual modes. I'm getting pretty good at it to the point I want to step it up.

Re: Close-up "Macro" pictures of your smoke
What camera are you using? I wish my P&S had manual settings, I would use it more.

Re: Close-up "Macro" pictures of your smoke
Now that's what I'm talking about. That second picture is great!
and yeah, the "Macro" is just a setting that most cheap digital cameras have. It allows you to take close-up pictures, up to about 2" away from the object.

Re: Close-up "Macro" pictures of your smoke
Haha thanks! I'm using a Canon Powershot aA570IS it's 7.1 megapixel with a 4x optical zoom. I wish I could take closer pics, though. Would a macro lens allow me to do that?

Re: Close-up "Macro" pictures of your smoke
I dunno much about that camera but on a DLSR it would help. Usually a regular lens has a min focus distance of 12-17 inches. a macro lens gets in much closer. But on a P&S it allows for pretty close focusing to begin with, also I dunno if they make macro lens for P&S. Sorry I am new to this photography hobby myself
