Same here... I have, I dunno maybe 25+ coins in NGC slabbs... Last night I took like 15 or so pics... Not one usable.... Either too Blurry, out of focus, red spots, flash washout or to dark...

Not a keeper in the mix.... Lucky it was a Digital Cam and I did not burn all that film and development costs...

 

Use your loupe in front of the camera lens.
