<p>[QUOTE=&quot;qualityrarecoin, post: 1537899, member: 40363&quot;]The thing is, I see a lot of luster on the coin through the view finder, but the final photo comes out without any luster.

I still see some red in my photos and lack that well lit look. I use ISO 100 - 400, Fstop 6.3, and i changed the exp. compensation up to .3 of a tick. My photo (the second one to the right), has three incandescent 100 watt bulbs facing 6 o clock, 12 o clock, and 9 o clock. Not sure why I&#039;m not getting that pop that a lot of his photos seem to have.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
