I've only logged a few hours with mine, but was disappointed. I thought 
I could get some decent detailed photos of PCBs (at the level of SMT 
solder flaws), but the resolution for fine detail just wasn't there. I 
ran through many settings, many light levels and distances. Still hoping 
this problem is me and not the camera. Wondering if it's remotely 
possible to kludge the mechanism into the back of a Nikon SLR. That 
camera uses some weird material called "film" that my wife lost interest in.
