OK...it has become evident that "Super-Macro" means proper lighting, a tripod and being more professional with your settings and setup to get the result you want. Some more testing is obviously needed to get the images that this camera can produce
Anyhow, I have taken some new happy snaps of my newly completed Prussian winged Digs and posted them to my VSF blog:

Right then.
Highly unsatisfied with being unable to pull down some more detailed shots?I had a bit more pf a play.
I present to you "Super-Macro" - a new method of finding your old brush hairs on your newly painted models! ?
Now imagine how good it will be with proper lighting!

Wow, that super-macro could be used for microscopic defects!
Nice work Tas. Torpedo nets, eh?

Suggested by some anonymous, mad super-genius for hire!
Yes - macro brings out all one's modelling and painting flaws like never before...

Watch out, Super Macro can be a real bummer. Shows every Oops as well as every great job.

Seems I was too late. Sorry.
I have found that sometimes the "on the table in mass" shots are better anyway.

Love the Beast Tas.
I am sure the Queens Army will deal with it when asked to.
Just glad I am a Yank.

Thanks guys! Especially to V for the offline construction suggestions along the way, including the torpedo nets
If there is anything in particular to want to see in more detail let me know Bans. I'll try some more macro shots under natural light this arvo.
I have found that sometimes the "on the table in mass" shots are better anyway. |
I think a combination of both army wide and details pics are good. Now I have boith options available
Just glad I am a Yank. |
Right then, one Russkies v Yanks scenario fighting over Alaska coming up!
