Indeed they can. I used a Nikon Coolpix 4500 for a while which was really good. A lot of compact cameras are really good for macro.

Ans what about the compacts like canon powershots that can focus to 1cm? They take super pics as well.

It’s not a a stupid question at all, all these acronyms can be confusing. SLR = Single Lens Reflex which is a type of camera, usually one that you can change the lenses on. DLSR = a digital version of an SLR, so it’s Digital Single Lens Reflex. Hope that’s explained it.

Nice article, loads of info. I would have never thought of using a beanbag for stability. Great idea, thanks.

I used to use film, but have gone digital completely now. With macro work it’s a major benefit as you can see if the shot you took worked straight away, and as macro can be very hit and miss, this makes things a lot easier.
