So here's some photos of some of my best/favorite coins: Here they are, from first to last: 1. 1857 Flying Eagle Cent/Reverse 2. Russian 5 Ruble Note, 1919 issue, "Gold Certificate" 3. 1963 Proof Franklin Half
Lol... so then, how can I get it unblurry.... I cropped it to fit, but my picture editing tools don't adjust for sharpness....
It appears you enlarged the pic too much. Cropping alone will not cause the blurry image. At least it never has for me. What pic software program are you using ? Then maybe I can offer some better answers.
Hate to tell you this ajm, but I copied your small photo into my picture adjustment software (which isn't the best), and when I lightened it up without changing either its size or the size of my view, it was already out-of-focus. Try shooting it again, and make sure you have the camera properly focused this time. BTW when I increased the size of the reverse photo, it stayed clear until it started pixilating.
AJ-make sure the camera is properly stabilized. When shooting macro mode pictures a tripod and timer-delay are strongly recommended to reduce as much camera shake as possible.
Okay - here's the thing - I was shooting in Micro mode... specifically for close-up photos.... and my camera autofocuses for it. I'll try it again, and I'll try to manually focus and see what that does. Thanks for the help so far, though! ~AJ
First, what camera are you using. Second, many cameras will tell you if it is in focus via different colored lights or blinking, etc. Learn what the lights mean. Sometimes it will blink if it can't focus on the subject, or it won't light. Also, don't zoom in in macro mode. Zoom out as much as you can, then move the camera closer. Lastly, shoot at the highest resolution and crop the image. You can then adjust the size of the image (which isn't the same thing as cropping).
