I can add a recommendation for my three-year-old Olympus Camedia D-545 Zoom. Only 4 megapixels, but it has shutter self-timer and a setting for "super-macro." This camera, with a table-top tripod, has enabled me to get shots like these:

I'm sure the model number is obsolete, but anything comparable should work fine, and the prices are down to around $100 for these kinds of features.

Happy Holidaze to all!

Thanks a lot guys.

I do think I have the macro mode and that's what I used, but once I zoom up on the subject at a close distant. The image start to get fuzzy or I don't have a steady hand once shot. I have a tri-pod to test and see if it work better.

Kurt, yes that is the Snow-4. In checking, I found that I have 11 of the '07 snow varieties. About 25%, at best. Long way to go yet.
I meant to ask if any of the Canon users know od a comparable, (price-wise) model to the PS A590 IS, that HAS REMOTE SHUTTER CONTROL? I need it to work with my camera/comouter set-up. I shake and the timer shakes, not to mention that on mine, it cuts the image after about three seconds, and I can't make :"last minute changes", or finish the setup, the way I want it. My older PhotoCam plus has RSC, and the TV out lasts for several minutes).. No optical zoom, but is 8 MP It worked just fine, until I gt into varieties, and had to but a newer camera. It, as I have said id the Powershot A590 IS. Great pictures, but no RSC! So I still seek!
