Entry Post: This is my first contest entry here on CoinTalk, thanks to @lordmarcovan for putting it on. I have never owned a Gold coin and...
The last time I really read about this was a while ago so I may be mixed up about the specifics. But if your income is less than a certain...
Thanks for the very detailed response, I have much to consider and quite a few options to think about. I've had sigma lenses before and never had...
Wow, I had to look that up as I'd never heard of it. Interesting technique, although my main reason for doing this is for full coin photos and...
I would tend to agree that trying to have an all purpose lens is not ideal. I would love to have an arsenal of different lenses but it's just not...
I don't NEED AF, but this would be my main lens used for various things so it would be nice. I'll start checking around, maybe even a prime lens...

I married my first DD :angelic:
Good suggestions here and I will check out a show at some point but it's not in the cards to drive 2 hours to Manchester this weekend. I have 3...

Thanks, next time I get a few minutes without little hands grabbing for my tripod I'll take a few pictures and post as many parameters as I can....
That would be ideal, but not in the cards for right now. I did try putting my tripod on the table, clamping a desk lamp to it and snapping a few...
Doug, I took a look at your site and how you built the copy stand. Great write up! It gave me a couple of ideas on how I can build something for...
