the cable on the camera could do with being quite a lot longer.
so after following up some posts on the RPF forums it seems that the focal length of the camera is out at around 60-90cm, anything closer is blurred, hence the pile of stuff it's sitting on in the photos from the previous post.
With the addition of another lens you can get some rather good macro images like this
mirrored as that's currently the default for the camera and you don't get a preview if you use the switch to reverse the image which makes this sort of thing a bit hard.
Can it do OCR on ɘпodɘlჸɒɘd?
