<p>[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 363577, member: 12965"]I see so many pics on Ebay with glare coming off the coin. You can't see the coin with glare coming off it and it hurts the sell, unless it's gold and then <u>sometimes</u> glare works. I'm not quite sure how I'm going to work lighting but I figured I do just like you said, play with it till I get it figured out. The nice thing about digital is if you screw it up the first time, it doesn't cost anything to do it again and again and again until you get it right and I'm sure I'm going to be doing just that.</p><p> </p><p>The camera had better be here Friday or I will not be a happy toad. I have so many coins to photograph, I will stay busy all weekend "playing" with the camera to get the shots like I want them then actually taking photographs. Plus, I can start setting up my store on Ebay finally and start posting some pics of my "keepers" in here. That ought to be amusing. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p> </p><p>Ribbit <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p> </p><p>Ps: I will wait to see how well the camera does with close-ups before seriously considering getting the macro lens. If I don't need it, I don't need it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
