[QUOTE="Ordinary Fool, post: 2784818, member: 85318"]Have you tried your LG's flash for coin pictures? Several of the LG's have a very good flash and may surprise you. One of the earlier versions has an interesting dual tone flash that can be amazingly useful for certain situations once you take full control of it. Which LG is it and running which android version? I am asking to determine if yours has laser focus and regardless, some versions of android will allow your camera to natively function in ways others will not. For example, yours may be able to produce RAW image files and put your mind even that much further from ever considering investing in high end and special purpose 35 DLSR equipment, when you see the difference between them and jpgs. The focus lock capability is interesting although would be likely more useful if you were using a microscope stand having very fine adjustment. This will lock focus wherever you wish, closest and infinity typically most useful, and then you simply position the camera wherever you wish. Take a peek at one of the most recent stereo zoom posts, consider that scope head comes out of that base with 2 clips and a phone will lay across the opening. Focus locked and you can do stepped focusing for stacked layers. All manners of superb lighting options available and often very affordably. An expensive copy stand with servo or micrometric adjustment rail taking up space and its usefulness outside photography quite limited? I don't need one. If I did for some un-fathomed reason, I'd use the FADAL 4020 nearby that will step off increments to 4 tiny decimal places with repeatable reliability.[/QUOTE]
