Dear Heinrich, thank you for sharing your beautiful pictures with us. I decided 5 minutes ago not to sell my 8800. Could you give me info or prescription about what I can purchise for taking macro photos. I have focusing problems without any attachment on my 8800 and I know because of my low knowledge about my camera. I bought it 6 mounths ago but still I am learning. I will realy plese if you help me...:-)
