<p>[QUOTE="qualityrarecoin, post: 1532093, member: 40363"]Am finally upgrading my Canon Rebel xSI DSLR Camera w/ 100mm Canon Macro Lens and have made the jump to a D90 with 150mm Sigma lens. I hear the quality in photos could be quite a difference. I know a lot of good coin photography and photographers swear by their lighting setup and their angling of it. How many of you here on the forum are active coin photographers? Maybe do it for a living or just as a hobby. If you do, key this slightly confused aspiring photographer (me) in on why I'm having difficulty bringing the color out of the full coin and not just have parts shaded in due to the light not really hitting those areas of the coin. I'd love to keep this thread productive on coin photography tips maybe not as often mentioned in the Mark Goodman book, that we can all kinda speak about here, but first, I must know, if I may start, what am I doing that I should be doing??</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,</p><p><br /></p><p>Jay[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
