How do you take clear photos of model trucks? I’ve tried to do some of mine and they keep blurring…

Depending on how close you are you might need to use the macro setting on your camera. If i remember right its normally a little picture of a flower(i think, i seem to just flip my camera onto it without thinking 
)

The clearest I get comes from “portrait” mode, but I cant knock the flash off. It’s only a cheap camera though…
Keep em coming lads some really nice stuff emerging. I found the Scotish Man Curtainsider on ebay but too expensive I will have to wait until I find one at a reasonable price. Tight Old git that I am.

Yes, it’s the flower symbol. On my camera it recommends using it below 80cm which is 31.5 inches
Also, if I wanted the clearest possible pic I would set the camera up on a base of some description and then take the shot using the self timer so that it was perfectly still when the shot was taken, no matter how steady your hand this always seems to give a sharper pic than holding the camera when taking the shot.
