The LC33 has a very respectable Macro (close-up) focus mode, in wide angle it can focus as close as 3.9 inches. The flash throttles down well to keep from over-exposing subjects as close as about six inches.

Movie record mode screen. Recording size is 320x240 with a 10 frame per second capture rate. Audio is recorded. The total amount of recording time available is shown below the battery meter (there is a 256MB SD card in our camera.) The length of each movie clip is limited only by the amount of available memory. The optical zoom is not useable in movie mode, you can use the digital zoom if desired.
