I use zoom with a macro function to get these, though certain pictures have simply been done using macro. I like taking pictures of my collection of miniatures in which I try to do as real life as possible.

Sadly, I don't have that sophisticated of a camera, though I am looking to perhaps purchasing a new one within the next few months.

About the close I come to having models in a "real life" situation, is this:
