just use the marco setting-the one that looks like a flower:P
@Mobiledeli: I was hoping for something like copy paste, but photobucket might be my only option. Or my Facebook. 
Thanks though. lol
@robolego2: Yeah, as I said, I tried that, but it wasn't close enough for me. I wanted to get closer, and thus, the contraption I made earlier. lol
Speaking of close ups, because the subject is so small, there's such are large amount of depth of field (I believe that's what it is called). Does anyone know to counteract that? To make it look more real?
Do you mean the aperture? With SLR and some point and shoots you select the aperture when its in manual mode, the lower the number the background is going to be blurry the higher the number the background will be just as sharp as the minifig, So far webcams don't have this option.
Yes and thank you. I believe the bigger the aperature, the less depth of field, and does that require more light as a downfall?

The bigger the aperture, the less depth of field, the more light is able to come in. Basically, bigger aperture = less light required. 
Oooh. Thanks for that.
Does this camera also have this option:
I was wondering if the white balance & exposure can also be adjusted.
On the top wheel is there an "M" ? Cause if there isn't, probably not, but if there is, your in luck. 
google the camera to get some stats for it. We can't tell because its only a picture and I have no idea whats it called. You can try googleing the camera's name and then one of the options, and then it might tell you if it supports it.
And this is just adjusting the apurture, most cameras should have this. I'll look up the model later.
Well, from what I see in the picture, I don't know the name of it. But I do see the "P" Mode (Program) Which is almost like manual mode but some of the settings are automaticly set. You should Also set the macro function, but since that is only the front, I can't see the back to see if it is available.
It's a Kodak Easy Share C182. Here is a photo of the top.
Ooh. It doesn't look like you have a manual mode... BUT, according to this - http://store.kodak.com/store/ekconsus/e … .161071600 under the specifications tab you have a macro mode (aka: the flower on the mode dial). So turn it to this, play around with the settings you can set the white balance- so set it to tungsten, and then set the ISO down to 80 or 100, whatever your lowest option is. Now adjust the exposure, and then lock the exposure, it says you can, this is a great feature it will reduce flicker. Now set the self timer to 2 seconds, sorry but it doesn't seem like you won't be able to adjust the aperture.
I really need a close up for a movie I'm planning. Can you please how the telescope contraptionm!
Oh yeah, I will probably put my pics on Facebook and make them public, it works pretty well, but you can't bump it wile filming.
Okay guys, I hope this works, here are my pics from Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?id=16 … =fbx_album
