I would still like advice on camera settings. I would like some "bare bones" shooting info so I can set my camera to that, and go from there. F...
Well I'm experimenting. Nikon users, active d lighting on or off?
This time I used a piece of paper. [IMG] I need a tripod or copy stand. I have to slow down the shutter to let more light in, around 1/15 of a...
Well I shot those pics in auto mode. A $1000 DSLR is going to take a better picture than an iphone. By the way, what shutter speed, ISO and...
I took dougs advice and bought some GE reveal bulbs. After using CFL's for several years, I forgot how hot regular light bulbs are! Good thing I...

The closet coin store is one hundred miles round trip. I'm not going to blow $15 in fuel just to look at coins. I can look at all the coins I...
