<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rmpsrpms, post: 2620353, member: 31773&quot;]The shots are not bad at all. Adding a 2nd light so that all the illumination does not come from straight above would &quot;improve&quot; them. It also looks like you tilted the camera to get the light to shine better on the coin,so that the whole coin appears tilted and parts are not in focus, so getting the camera and coin lined up would also &quot;improve&quot; the shots. And of course cropping. </p><p><br /></p><p>A note on cropping...you always want to do some amount of downsizing. Straight cropping and publishing at 100% will show the problems that are introduced by the camera sensor. Note also that non-integer downsizing creates blur artifacts. I would recommend a 2x downsizing before any cropping, then crop out the coin from the downsized image and publish at 100%. It may be a little on the small size, but will give you best publishable quality.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
