Thanks DesertEagle!
Me can't write & no sponsor yet! Hehe...
I use my G9 for macro & S80 for WA. I like both!

Ed Sifu, another excellent collection...
BTW, without the inon close-up focus lenses, how far can you zoom out the G9 lens in macro mode before the AF becomes unmanageable?

Fantastic shots ED !!! Nice to see images taken with this camera in the hands of someone who knows what he is doing. Next time anyone asks me about buying a camera I'm gonna refer them to this thread.
I'm also interested in seeing a pic or two of the mods to the housing.
Once again well done !

Absolutely stunning pic's Ed!!! Thanks mate, you just removed any shadow of a doubt I had about getting a G9! Did you take these pic's with the builtin macro function, or use an external macro lens?

Thanks Pak Sifu, for the kind words!
You can actually zoom in all the way and the focusing is still manageable, but the distance between the subject and the lens will be too far, as you would need to move back for the AF to work effectively (then the subject will be small again). It is best that you use around 30-40% only of the zoom for the AF to work at the best distance and size.
Disclaimer: This is based on my personal experience and do not necessary reflect on the capabilities of the camera. I normally use lenses!
