Here is my very first Macro Pic using my new Canon G7, and Newly bought Rolex Seadweller on 3-10-2007.

Congrats....Beautiful baby. That crystal is like bulletproof glass. You could use that thing as a weapon if needed. I love the SD.

Sweet watch. Congratulations. I have just bought my first Rolex, a Date Sub 166610 and I looked at the SD over and over. Ultimately I really couldn't decide based on anything other than my diving activities, which are never going to get me to the SD's tolerances or even near. That's probably not the point, because I still think the extra grunt of the SD and the crystal make it one serious looking watch. Good decision, great watch that SD.

Nice pix - nice watch.

THis forum revolves around pix so how about some tips from the experts on taking good pix.

Some questions.

I note that the dial is not quite in focus, is this because the camera is focussing on the crystal and the 2-3mm distance to the dial is causing an out of focus situation. Is this the problem and can it be compensated for? Can we move the camera further from the subject or change the F stop rating to increase the depth of field. Come on and give us some tips?

Indeed it does. First tip: Stop drinking 12 hours before attempting to take any photos of your watch. Especially if you are taking a wrist shot in the car while driving!

I still have a lot to learn about the Canon G7, I did not even set the white balance when I took this first pic. I will be improving my photo's hopefully as I go along.
