[QUOTE="lawdogct, post: 104129, member: 1476"]I recently bought a QX5 too and love it. The only difference I've seen (in writing) between the QX5 and the QX3+ is the resolution of the video capture is higher with the QX5. So unless you mean to make videos of your coins, either should do. I don't use the 200X much for coins....way to close for any practicle use other than being able to see die strike metal flow really well ;) I agree on the lighting being a bit harsh on the high points, but the software does allow you to tweak this and I have easily compensated for this by using additional lighting from a desklamp. After searching through ebay and the rest of the net, I ended up buying mine from tigerdirect.com. Fast service, and good shipping. All told I think it was around $80.
