I have an Olympus 3030 digital camera. It works great but, the hard part is
getting the lighting correct. I found the easiest way to get good pictures
of jewelry and beads is to use a flat bed scanner. If you check my website
that's how I took all of the pics.

Hi,
Would anyone mind recommending (or warning against) a digital camera that
is
suitable for photographing beads and jewelry up close? I'd also like to be
able to use it for just general purpose family photos too. I've looked and
looked... in stores and online and it just gets more confusing. It would
be
a heartbreaker to get one home and not be able to take good jewelry
pictures
with it.
I would appreciate any advice you can give me.
Thanks,
Gennie
