New Camera Sugestions
I take 99% of my own jewelry shots. Im no expert but Im happy enough that I dont get them professionally done (i have before) I need an upgrade from my current Canon SD-1000 which I really like and has served me well. I have had good luck with Canons on macro shots. I have a cap of 400.00 for a point and shoot camera. I dont want to invest more into a DSLR, because of the need for multiple lenses and expense, that and Im no photog.hwell: 85% of the camera use will be for macro shots.

I'll check out my S95 more to see how it is for macro's...it's a great point and shoot and highly regarded by professionals...I'd start there.

Moreso than the camera, lighting will make a substantial difference.
It can be cheap, especially for small jewelry where you don't need a large lightbox, and yield significant improvements even with a P&S camera.
And by cheap, I mean "a cardboard box and bits of paper" cheap.

The flash quit working on my old P&S a few days ago so I picked up the S95 today. I was due for an upgrade. Thanks for the recommendations in this thread. Great little camera. I'm totally blown away at the image quality and all of it's functions.
