I LOVE to post pics when I'm working on my wheels or PC stuff. 90% of the time I need to take a pic that is inches away from something. I have a SONY dsc-w290 and it sucks at that. Needs to be almost a foot away to do clear close ups. I had a KODAK v1253 that was awesome at super close ups, but it fell ill of the sticking lens and auto shut offs.
I need a $200ish camera that likes to be up close and person. Don't care about the zoom. Would like it to capture HD vid too, but as a last resort it doesnt have to. |

Ricohs are good at that
Of course, they are not one of the "hipster-accepted" brands |

Any quality camera with Macro settings should do what you want. Or if you go the more expensive route you can get a Macro lens.

Almost every camera claims to have a macro setting, even cellphones......but Ricohs can focus down to 1cm

Don't lie; you are looking for a camera that takes close-up shots so you can send pricktures that make your little fella look bigger than he is.
