<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2214313, member: 19463&quot;]The features that make a good coin camera are not related to megapixels or zoom ratio but better cameras tend to have larger lenses so I suspect the Nikon 330 would do well.&nbsp; I still believe that a 5-10 year old used dSLR of either Nikon or Canon brand would do better but I do not keep up with the many models available.&nbsp; I suspect that any camera will be better than any phone.&nbsp; I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 phone but the photos of coins I took with it were nothing close to what I have done with a cheap camera.&nbsp;&nbsp; The big difference is whether you put the effort into learning to use the camera.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I took the photos for the book Late Roman Bronze Coins by Victor Failmezger with a Nikon Coolpix 990 (my first digital camera) made 15 years ago.&nbsp; My photos now are better than those back then but the ones below show examples of a good year 2000 digital.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]433018[/ATTACH]&nbsp;&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]433023[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
