<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KurtS, post: 2065930, member: 11786&quot;]Doug points out an important difference between dSLRs and most point-and-shoots: you may not have a &quot;manual&quot; setting on the inexpensive cameras. In other words, you might not be able to manually set the aperture for the lens, which is useful when shooting higher relief ancient coins. I&#039;ve used both point-and-shoots, and higher-end dSLRs, and found completely manual cameras can produce better results, especially in regards to details and better tonal range. For dSLRs you can spend a lot, or you can buy used gear from places like KEH which does a very good job for macro work.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
