Bob, check out this add-on that should do the trick!
Also, if your camera has macro mode (the button with a pic of a flower) make sure that is selected for close ups.
I was searching for a cheap camera that would do close ups thru the glass & was able to pick one up on ebay in the box for $28. I found out all I needed to search for was "Super Macro" mode.
