<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ToughCOINS, post: 24818292, member: 20480&quot;]I too have a hard time with photographing PL, DMPL and proof coins.&nbsp; I usually find the level of difficulty to be coin-specific. </p><p><br /></p><p>If the coin is untoned my options are less limited.&nbsp; I can sacrifice a little depth of field (photographic) to capture depth of mirrors by tipping the coin slightly so that it reflects the light source to the camera lens, and then repositioning the lamp very slightly to move the glare off the coin.&nbsp; I’m seldom satisfied with first attempts, and usually shoot many photos with multiple lamp locations before I get an acceptable rendering.</p><p><br /></p><p>If the coin is both reflective and colorful it becomes even more of a battle for me.&nbsp; I find acceptable lamp positioning to be much more limited, and a real source of frustration.&nbsp; I’ll be very interested in responses from our resident experts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
