How is it for close up detailed picture?

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

I've not tried it for macro, so can't help you there, My friend has mine in Europe now so I can't try it. Maybe if you google the question, they will know or the manual may pop-up. Aside from my SLR, this takes great telephotos.

I took some pictures of snowflakes and have perfect detail. I was about 3-4 inches away and they were about 1/4 inch diameter. I was just using automatic setting. I haven't tried the advanced features b/c I have an SLR. I can't speak for artistic close ups where you'd want to vary your depth of field.

It works well for close up view. I don't use it that often, but I am glad to have it when needed. So far, I'm happy with it.

This is my opinion on your question. This camera is not designed to take pictures less than 18 inches from the subject so I would say it is not suitable for what you want to do. Secondly, doing what you purpose would be a very low-light situation and even if the camera would do closeup exposures there would be issues with the pictures and any movement of the subject would be blurred.

I take close ups of all kinds of things and they come out good. There are free photo editing software you can download that will make your close ups even better. If you want, I will take some close ups of small objects and let you see if it's the quality you want. If so, I will give you my email so I can send them to you.

You can get some nice crisp photos/text at close range using the "Macro" setting. Need to turn the flash off though...which of course slows the shutter speed. Takeing a picture of a page is very doable though and it looks fantastic. I was really suprised when I tried it.

I have taken some good pictures with it. You have to use it in manual mode. I'm not a lazy person so I don't mind using manual mode.

I've done some close up shots and it has performed well. I love this camera but I am not s professional photographer.

I don't really use it much, but I took a picture of myself with it and it was fine. No complaints but i havent used it extensively.

I have been using the P7800 hard for a couple of months. The resolution has amazed me. Sharpness and detail is fantastic for such a small camera. This is the most versatile small camera I have ever used. I am carrying it to Europe this fall and believe it is going to perform well.

You can get decent quality pics from the rear facing camera. It has several settings for adjusting resolution, shooting mode, exposure, etc. You'll want to change the storage to the external sd card otherwise you'll run out of space quickly. The flash can be overly bright and can wash out your subject if you're too close. I like the panoramic shooting mode. I find pictures taken with the zoom are less detailed. The front facing camera produces good quality pics. I haven't used it with any chat apps like Skype so I can't comment on that. Video mode works well too.

Yes, I'd recommend 400 DPI, its a bit slower but the picture comes out a lot better

You can get within four or five inches of most still subjects and get a good shot. The lighting can sometimes be a challenge indoors. I experiment with flash/no flash to get what I need. :^)

It is good for most applications. It works well with close ups of landscape.

Any photos developed yet? My one concern is low light photographs...Just wondering about quality and ease of use. How easy are the automatic features to use?

I've been using my Elph indoors only to take photos of my beadwork. It is great for detailed close ups indoors however, I have not taken any shots outdoors yet.

I am not a professional, but I think the pictures it takes are extremely clear. I have my camera set to high resolution, and the pictures turn out. I tend to leave the focus on manual. There are times the camera can't focus on exactly what I want.

It is an awesome camera. I love mine. Takes very good close ups as well. Good detail. Best digital camera I have had so far!! Good luck on Ebay.
