But i was unable to find your specific model there , although he had 4 different Concorde Eye-Q models . It is still worth a look .
Maybe you could try to capture these ribbons without using the zoom and from a different angle .Or even try to take the ribbons outside of the house and take the photo there .
Did you try to use the macro mode on your camera ?
Just keep on experimenting !!

Does my digital even have macro mode? I don't find anything about that in the manual. I bought it knowing nothing about digital cameras, shoot, cameras period really. It is a pretty basic digital camera, I also have a "toy camera" which is even more limited, but takes great pictures. I will go to the concord site (concordcam.com) and see what I can find out there. I will take the ribbons outside too and see what happens, was thinking that last night actually. Right now I am babysitting (getting frustrated too) and the dad was taking the mom to work but that was 2 1/2 hours ago and he has yet to return. I shoulda known when they sent her with snacks. She TALKS ALOT, so I am not taking any right now cuz I won't be able to concentrate. Don't get me wrong, love her to death, just hate when people imply one thing and do another, such as will you watch while I take the wife to work. Implies imminent return!!!! NOT! Have other things to do to, nephew's bday tomorrow!!
