<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ksmooter61, post: 26360150, member: 169607&quot;][USER=114635]@Tall Paul[/USER] - the scope is a simple Elikliv with tissue paper tucked around the LED lights that surround the lens to eliminate the glare and the two side lamps set to about 15%. The overhead is a 40-watt soft white bulb about 36&quot; above and as direct overhead as possible. The two magnifying desk lamps are set with the white LED setting at 3 of 10 brightness, angled as high as possible and from angles to try and hit the entire circumference of the coin. I also only do these during daytime with the room window shaded but allowing indirect light in.</p><p><br /></p><p>I find this gets the colors very close to natural. The only problem is with any mirror-like finishes; they tend to have a yellow tint. They look good, and there is no glare from reflection, but just a bit of yellow shows. I have tried adjusting the settings on the camera, but anything I do affects adversely affects the quality of the other photos, so I am accepting it for now.</p><p><br /></p><p>I will be posting a few follow-ups of the photos soon to get feedback from the forum.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
