<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 5417599, member: 19463"]While there are coins that do not benefit from ring lights, enough do that I believe it is a worthwhile purchase for the ancient coin photographer. The model linked above seems to have all the desirable features for coin use but they come in many types and qualities. I was given one for my phone but rarely use it since I d prefer camera photos and have a decent ring for camera use. Those rings cost very little more than the ones for phones and also come in a wide varieties of levels. In many cases I prefer to mix the light from the ring with some direct light but a lot of that is a matter of opinion. [ATTACH=full]1235071[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
