<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2300045, member: 1892&quot;]That&#039;ll be budget-dependent. I use the same rig built for coin imaging, a Canon dSLR/bellows/duplicating lens setup controlled from the computer by Canon&#039;s Zoom Browser software. You could duplicate it for about $400; it can shoot anything from full slab pics to a mint mark at 500px wide, and lets you study coins on your monitor in real time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Many less-expensive USB microscopes can do the same - wire to your computer via USB and show the image on your monitor in real time. You can find them under $100. I don&#039;t have opinions on any of them due to lack of experience, but the only way a USB scope will match the quality of my rig is if you spend more on the scope than I did. Optical quality is not cheap.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
