Hi , any experts here could advice me on how to take a clear macro shoot on a 50 cents size item with the camera stated above?

I have to take some clear shots of the item for online showcase, but seems like i cant really manage to get it done.

Mount your camera on a tripod, lower ur aperture to f/8 or less, however diffraction set in when aperture is smaller than f/8 using APC-S. You can zoom in, but the DOF will shallower, so adjust as accordigly

Nope I do not have a macro lens. I tried finding on carou**** can't be found. Anyone knows any platform for it?

get a proper macro lens such as 30mm F3.5 for e-mount or get raynox drc250 macro filter or close-up filter.

I think its APS-C, its the sensor found in NEX cams.

DOF: Depth of field, meaning how much u can get in focus.
