macro on the S2 IS

[celebrian23]

I'm leaning towards getting the S2 IS. If you saw my previous thread, I don't think the S3 adds so much more to the deal that it's worth paying $450 for it when I can get an S2 for $340 from amazon. Anyways, is there a way for me to shoot macros with this camera?

Yes it has nice macro possibilities. Even can focus to 0cm. But isn't not very useful since the lens obscures the light for most subjects that close.
