<p>[QUOTE=&quot;texmech, post: 1057913, member: 20068&quot;]A recent thread on CT got me thinking. Right now I use my wife&#039;s digital camera to take what pictures I do take, and they are just average.&nbsp; One guy mentioned one of these $50 cameras specifically designed for close up shots like coins or stamps, but from some of the responses it seems this camera is not able to take a picture of a larger coin like a Morgan. Well, I want the ability to take larger pics and I also want to start off with something, not so expensive until I get better. My dilemma is:</p><p>1) Should I look for a camera better able to take coin pictures and probably spend more than $50. If so what are some suggestions? Something less than $100</p><p>2) Or how about a copy stand arrangement that I can mount a conventional digital camera on and experiment with that. </p><p>I would like to further enhance my hobby here, but I want to take a few baby steps first.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
