Thanks for the comments guys ... now I just need a macro lens.

Good lookin' pics. What settings were you shooting with?

 

[ThurlowR]

Shutter : 1/60
Aperture : f/5.7
ISO : 640
Focal Length : 55mm

I was also using one of those cheap 10x mag lens with the 55mm.

So far it seems to be a good camera I would like to get a better one once I learn the ropes of a SLR.

As good as those pics are I could not imagine getting a better camera. Save the money for corals )

Those are some really good pics. I've got nikon dslr, with no where near these results. What's the 10x mag thing? (Lurker from RRC)
