Yes, it is excellent, I wonder why people spend so much money on useless cameras while Panasonic Lumix Lx 7 is available.

It's awesome. Funny because before I posted this answer I took some macro shots first, with and without flash, and both came out nice. I took a photo of a half dollar coin and you can see the intricate details in it when I zoomed in on the shots I took.

yes -- you can actually copy a slide with this camera, as long as you stop down to f 5.6 or smaller.

The LX7 has a macro setting and it is easier to get a macro shot using the wide angle setting. But your lens will be very close to your subject. It will be very hard to shoot live objects because they will move away due to the proximity of the lens unless they are trained not to.

This is an amazing camera. The only thing it doesn't do is close Macro. If I'm not using my NEX7 or 60d, this is the camera I use, and alot of times I differ to it for the ease of useage & pic quality. For what you want , you'll be very happy & then some.

The macro shots are very good but can get grainy if too zoomed in. Software could probabaly help clean up a photograph.

Yes. However I would not recommend this camera. The close up/macro function is useless.

Yes- it is a true macro. It probably is not as sharp as a dedicated macro- like a Tamron 90mm- but it will work in a pinch. The lens is a good "all around" lens. If you do not need low light, fast action, National Geographic sharpness, this is a very good lens.

I would think so. It has a good focus setting and it's a really good quality. I've never really done that specifically but I love the camera so it should be good

Yes it is, but you don't recognize it because of its design; remember it's a point and shoot even with macros and does very well with videos too.Grandma Rocks (vote if this was helpful)

Well, I think it's great. For a lot of my macro/close-up shots, I use this camera instead of my mirrorless cameras. It'll let you get in darned close.Bill

Hello Michael, The macro function on this camera is a nice feature. I have used this on floral pics. And other christmas decorations. I find you may like it for the price.

I have taken some incredible photos with the macro mode...and I photograph insects in the field on a regular basis for my job. The supermacro is simply sent from heaven...it works wonderfully!

It does fairly decent macro for what it is. This is not a super high end camera but for the price it is hard to beat.

Hi. The only "macro" I see the camara has is accesible from the visible botton in the back ot the camara. I don't speak english very well. I can send you the Guide to your e-mail if you want...

Hi personally it did not work for me. The camera becomes set back so far as a result of the mounting that focussing is a problem. For me other than macro work it was not suitable and certainly not as all round useful as I understood it to be.I returned mine for a refund

Hi I like mine a lot. Just be sure you not getting the most powerful one as its too much magnification( the 250) . It's no macro lens but I think it's worth the money
