<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aethelred, post: 3443230, member: 81808&quot;]First let&#039;s get the coin out of the way, it is a Sestertius of Titus (RIC II 170) issued at Rome in AD 80-81. It was purchased from Marc Breitspreacher this month.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now the photo: I am using old glass*, but some new methods. I had been using the 18-55mm kit lens and a 13mm macro extention tube, but I have never really been happy with the results from the kit lens. I decided to try a Tamron 18-200 f/3.5-6.3 that I bought years ago to take on my honeymoon. I&#039;m using it with the 13mm extender and shooting at f11 ISO400 using a Canon t5. </p><p><br /></p><p>I want to ask for honest advice on what I have right and what I could improve on. Please bear in mind that I am red/green color blind, so anything related to getting the color adjusted, corrected et cetera of beyond my ability level. I thank you in advance for your opinions.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.wnccoins.com/VM%20Titus%20Sestertius.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>*I have new glass in the form of a Canon 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM coming, I think it will serve me for coins (with a 13mm extension) as well as a good walkaround lens, but I also plan to get a 100mm macro one of these days.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
