<p>[QUOTE=&quot;adelv_unegv, post: 240576, member: 7247&quot;]Like previously stated, Macro Mode and a tripod.</p><p><br /></p><p>as for recommendations, a camera that&#039;s capable of focusing while close to the subject.&nbsp; Many &quot;pro-sumer&quot; models have a threaded barrel to attach a close-up set (filters).&nbsp; A close up set will allow you to move the camera much closer to the work.&nbsp; More expensive &quot;professional&quot; models have interchangable lenses - including close-up lenses. (but they&#039;re spendy.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I don&#039;t recommend buying a camera for a specific task (like shooting coins) unless you intend to do a lot of that task.&nbsp; Basic &quot;consumer&quot; models are intended primarily for snapshots-for-the-family-album type thing, but they often have enough functionality to allow decent pics of close-ups.</p><p><br /></p><p>before plopping down more money for another camera, check for Macro.&nbsp; It allows the camera to focus much closer than the snapshot mode.&nbsp; Your camera may already be able to do what you want.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
