I finally discovered where the macro mode is on my camera! 

Okay doofus, you say, why didn’t you just look at your owner’s manual?  Let me explain.  I live with the possession nazi.  To actually keep the owner’s manual for future need would be, well, cluttery.  So, often times when we get some new item (and my radar is not up), things get pitched. (BTW:  My radar means I get a sudden urge to go through the garbage/recycle in the garage). 

We got this camera at the same time we got our 52-inch (or something obnoxious like that) tv  — and since I started selling stitch markers on Etsy in April, I’ve been wondering where the owner’s manual is.  I’ve asked Craig but never gotten much of a response.  So, I’ve slaved and slaved trying to get up close photos that end up sometimes clear, but more often pixelated and slightly blurry.

Today I finally remembered to go to the Samsung website and research my camera (something I’ve often thought about but never had the camera on hand at the time my thought occurred hence the never actually doing it) and low and behold….THE MACRO MODE ACTUALLY EXISTS!  Everyone has been telling me that as new as the camera is, it should have a macro setting.

I HAD TO TAKE A QUICK SHOT ON THE TOP OF MADDIE’S* CRATE JUST TO TEST IT.  Not bad!

I – AM – SO – EXCITED!!!!

*We’re dogsitting my brother-in-law’s 2 dogs this week while he takes a honeymoon cruise with his wife.  Too bad there’s a hurricane that just passed over the Cayman Islands, where they are going!!!
