My camera is a digital Optio S40 from pentax. It takes amazing photos, very easily. The macro and super macro are a snap, you just change the dial setting and the camera focuses automaticaly, if you just get it the right distance from the object you want to shoot. It really lets you be creative without understanding the mechanics of shooting. Probably any of the newer digital cameras are good, I like this one a LOT. It has 4.0 megapixels, which is a measure of resolution. Some of the cheaper models go down to 3.0, I think, and are cheaper, but look at the clarity on the following pictures! No tripod, by the way. This one cost around $300 when we got it last year. This picture, of a Euphorbia Lomii thai hybrid, was taken on macro.
