Hi all,
There is a 1800s ring in our family of very great sentimental value that I Have been told I can take a photo of but I have to do it in their home.
I have tried at my home, with another ring, to find a way that I can do this successfully in the one attempt!
But was disappointed at the focus when I cropped it as a 2-inch square photo to include in my family tree page.
My camera is a "Fujfilm FinePix S602Zoom.
I will use a tripod and delayed shutter to ovoid camera shake, but my efforts at using the macro setting have not been good, they are out of focus.
Would I be better off using the auto focus from three feet, and take them on the highest quality setting so I can then crop into the image I Photoshop?
Also what would be the best way of holding the ring in place, and on what background?
Would someone
Thanks for any thoughts,
Mick.
