I'm sorry, I forgot the details... Well, I used my Olympus c50-50 zoom. Probably it was set in macro or super-macro and definately I used the highest possible resolution and .tiff format as I was trying to make a pic for a calendar. (I did get a pic in the calendar and I had uploaded it on the old forums but its not there anymore..)That gave me an original picture of 14Mb and the ease to crop the interesting part and still have a crystal clear image. I have some more macro's like that but I'll let you people try first :-P
