<p>[QUOTE="USMoneylover, post: 1081287, member: 26802"]When I first joined this site, like many people, I couldn't shoot a decent coin picture to save my life. I have read a bunch of informative posts about taking photos, lighting and editing pictures. One of the most important lessons to me was you don't NEED expensive photography equipment to take good clear photos, you just need to learn to use what you have. Those posts, along with my desire to contribute photos occasionally have not only made me a better photographer, but a happier collector. With all that said, I would like to say thanks to everyone who has taken the time to offer advice on coin photography to this forum and others.:thumb:</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is what a 8 year old 4mp point and shoot can do:</p><p><img src="http://i1109.photobucket.com/albums/h429/usmoneylover/Misc/1957quarter1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i1109.photobucket.com/albums/h429/usmoneylover/Misc/kennedyobv1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i1109.photobucket.com/albums/h429/usmoneylover/Misc/1941sWLHobv1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
