I need a new camera, that was macro mode.

I tried very hard to get the focus right, but I think that the lens has lost some mobility over the years and sand-infiltration events.

Hopefully you can see ok in those pictures, I can take some from further away too.

Yes those aren't the best photos... my work had a camera that would never focus well when too close, and the display was not a high enough resolution to show that you had just taken a blurry shot. You could sometimes get a decent image by using very high resolution and taking the shot from further away. Taking photos in an area that got lots of natural light helped too, but stay away from direct sunlight or fluorescent lights.

It got to be such a pain that we brought our own personal cameras in when we knew we would need to take photos, and eventually the company picked up a decent camera for about $50-100.
