Digital Camera Macro Feature
what do u know about the MACRO feature on a digital camera?
what am i looking for when im choosing a camera that i wanna take macro pictures with? anything i need to look for in particular?
(do megapixels have anything to do with the macro feature?)
gracias!
i cant afford a SLR or those expensive cameras. 
macro focus range: what is the diff between 5cm and 15cm?
The number of pixels on a sensor has nothing to do with the macro capability of any camera. We will have to assume you are talking about a P&S camera. Unfortunately, not of the specs on these cameras tell you what the macro capability of the camera really is … it does tell you how close your can get your camera to the subject, the the actual subject to image size ratio is not indicated.
DSLR cameras using macro lenses can be used at 1:2 and on some of the better lenses actual 1:1 magnification ratios.
On pixel counts:
