<p>[QUOTE="alde, post: 2662314, member: 6043"]The first image seems sharper and the second one has better color. How small is the coin? I am finding that my camera won't focus closer than about 8 or 9 inches from the coin so I shoot in the highest resolution and crop it. I have also found that I get the best results when I point a single light source at a white wall about 3 feet from the camera. I have the blinds on the room window closed but get some light from the window. I think you can get some very good results if you play with the lighting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
