How can I get photos of my rings?!?!?

[justadiamondlover]

I have several rings that I am trying to get photos of but I CAN''T!!! I am usung a digital camara. Should I be using a regular one?
I''ve read other posts on this but what I''ve read is "buy a new camara". Can''t do that. So it''s between the blurry digital and a regular SLR. Haven''t tried the SLR yet. Any tips??

PS Sorry if I posted in the wrong place.

This is what I have read on PS. Use the macro mode on your digital camera. Turn off the flash and if you can take a pic with sunlight that helps too. The macro mode has a little flower on it if that helps. Most people say they have to take a ton of pics just to get a few good ones. Good luck!!

IT WORKED AGAIN! Like a charm....if you hadn''t said "the flower" I wouldn''t have EVER figured it out!
I left my downloading cord thing (you can tell I''m a pro can''t you...ha ha..) @ home but will definately post the antique style ring, it turned out excellent!
Thank you again for your help!
