I have the floppy Mavica and on mine a standard floppy (1.2 MB)holds 6 hi res pictures. No idea how many other quality, I never have taken any. It can record a short (1 min) video with sound too. But the video quality isn't anything to write home about. Just kind of fun. It has a good lens,

When purchasing a camera, also consider the possibility of publishing your pictures in a lace publication. As an example, the I.O.L.I. Bulletin (While I do not know, I would not think it would be that different from LACE or any other lace publication.) requires photos to be at least 300 ppi

I have to admit that when I went and bought a digital camera I went for one which a friend had already bought and that she'd allowed me to try out - we spent a lunch time playing with it when she got it and I recogned that if I could learn to use it in just one hour it was the one for me.

Devon I use an optical camera but the problems with light angles are the same. You need to make yourself aware of where the light is coming from. I have found that side lighting my shots works best for lace. Then your head doesn't make a shadow. I use cheap reflector lamps that I buy at a

Hi everyone This is an addition to the advice to use the timed shutter release, if trying to eliminate the shadow of the photographer from the image - you can set the timer, and hold the camera over the lace, rather than trying to prop the camera on something, and the lace as well I did do some
