I love exploring close-up shots on the camera. Can you guess what this image is? (Quite simple actually, if you’re like me; answer at the end of the post)
Of course, the best thing to use the macro mode on are flowers:
Here’s another extremely close-up shot of a plaque of “Om” given to me by a friend. No more than 2.5 inches square in actual size.
And here’s an oh-so-yummy Chips Ahoy cookie. I cropped a part of this image and played around with the colours a bit to generate the first picture above.
I love the macro mode. Unfortunately though, you can’t use any kind of zoom (optical or digital), atleast in my camera when you’re shooting something this close. I think going even the slightest bit tele changes the focal length of the lens to beyond 10 cm which means you’re no longer doing macro.

And I thought, I’ll be the first to comment on it! You’ve been comment spammed :P. Great Stuff! I think the zoom is of some dish (upma maybe? you forgot to mention the answer however :)).
Actually, in Macros, you would’nt need any zoom since you are capable of as close to the object as possible. Try using the MF (manual focus) option and then you can focus even with 2-3 cm from the object.
dude the zoom was of the cookie photo! read the words :D
One Camera please. And cookies. To go.
PS: U are finally getting spammed? Muahahahaha..
