Depth of Field
I am using a Sony Mavica CVC500CD Digital Camera. I am photographing very detailed pieces of pottery. If I am shooting lets say a container. I want to get focused on the back rim of the container. But when I take the picture the back of the rim is always blurry. Do I need to get a different type of lens? Or is it just something that I am doing wrong? Please help!

To get maximum depth of field, shoot in aperture priority mode and set the smallest aperture (largest f-number). On the MVC-CD500 it's f/8. Even at that, depth of field is very shallow at extremely close (MACRO) shooting distances. You might try backing up and enlarging on the pottery detail you want.
