[QUOTE="Scropper, post: 2193920, member: 36121"]Some of these photographs are fantastic! I would say (playing devil's advocate for HA) that they are more concerned with consistency and speed than bringing out the absolute most beauty possible. These photographs that are being rightly showed off took at least minutes to set up and process to get them looking like the coin and bringing out the coins' true beauty. Lighting all coins properly takes variation and a great deal of time. For the big money coins, I'm sure they feel the buyers are either previewing the coins or having their agents do so. As they're processing thousands of coins at a time, they want to throw it under the camera, shoot it and process it quickly - they want to spend seconds on each photograph, not minutes. That said, given their take you'd think they would want to get the most out of their photographs! I'd imagine that the highest-end, signature coins do get special attention. But these beautiful coins shared here have been well-treated by their owners, to get beauty shots done up so well![/QUOTE]
