<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TIF, post: 3062273, member: 56859&quot;]I&#039;ve found it difficult to photograph silver or reflective coins in bright sunlight.&nbsp; Anything is do-able though, but it requires changing the settings.&nbsp; I&#039;ve grown accustomed to shooting indoors (during the day though, with bright indirect sunlight) using an Ott light.&nbsp; I white balance to a piece of white paper and shoot against a black background.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lately I&#039;ve been shooting with a scrap of white paper in the field and I use that to color correct the image.&nbsp; That has worked very well to ensure the coin&#039;s true color is reflected in the final image.&nbsp; I need to reshoot a bunch of coins in this manner.</p><p><br /></p><p>While there are differences in ambient light from shoot to shoot despite using the lamp, it&#039;s close enough that I don&#039;t have to vary the camera settings much at all for any given coin on any particular day.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
