How can I take good close-up pictures of jewellery with 5 mega pix digital camera, to sell on ebay.?

Yes of course we can. The first digital cameras didn't even one ONE megapixel. My first one had 1.3 megapixels.

My current one has more like 20. But megapixels aren't the whole story. The number of pixels is only one factor in the sharpness of photos.

Higher megapixel chips are cheaper now so they're moving downwards into cheaper cameras, where they don't necessarily make the pictures much better. ADDITION. Lenses focus the image on a surface.

If you hold a magnifying glass 3-4" off the kitchen table and move it up and down to get just the right distance, you'll see an image of the overhead light. In a camera the lens focuses the image onto film, or a silicon chip covered with light sensors.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
