<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gixxxer, post: 447124, member: 13268&quot;]Hi Joseph. If you are trying to use a digital &quot;point and shoot&quot; camera, it should have a &quot;macro&quot; mode, which is usually going to be a button or setting on a dial that has a flowerto indicate &quot;macro&quot; mode. Set the camera in macro mode, focus the camera, then hold a hand held magnifying glass between the lens and the coin. when you put the magnifying glass between the lens and the coin, you will be able to bring the camera much closer to the coin. Essentially (sp?), you are using the magnifying glass as a add on &quot;macro lens&quot;. it takes a little practice, but works very well. Also, a tripod will make a huge difference, as the more you magnify the image, themore it will blur from the slightest movement. I have taken some great pictures like this, using my Motorola RAZR cellphone, and a 16X loupe. Good luck, and I look forward to seeing the pics. Chris:thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
