What type of Powershot do you have? |
I agree, I love canon powershots, actually any camera will do for me, they are all like cars to me. I just "get in and drive them". The key to good photographs is more often understanding light and quality of light than equipment, However sometimes having the right equipment is neccesary to key shot.
Some would be maybe surprised but I love my Sony Cybershot Point and shoot. I used it all the time on the orchids.
Here is one tip that is easy for any body. find a nice window or outside in the shade. with bright but diffused light ( no direct sun) to place your subject ie. orchid, and turn your flash off, and go to town, shoot away.
