<p>[QUOTE="bigjpst, post: 1338325, member: 21015"]Taking pictures of toned coins will take a lot of practice and movement of your lighting. Sometimes you may need to tip the slab or diffuse the lights to get an accurate pic. You can also try <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t41839/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t41839/">This thread</a>. Try searching through some of lehigh96's threads. He has some great suggestions on taking pics of toned coins. </p><p> If you aren't already make sure you are shooting straight down. Try pointing the lamps at the camera and not at the slab. Or extend the legs of your tripod to get the camera farther away and zoom to the max of your macro. Remember you can edit background out afterwards. Oh and turn off any other outside light source.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
