<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Daggarjon, post: 710957, member: 4230&quot;]telemyz - you asked an age old questions, that is very hard to easily explain <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> taking images of coin is one of the most difficult things to do correctly. For my coins, i dontuse flash! Flash is too bright, too direct and completely uncontrollable. I use ambient light, and then flood the object with that. use an old milk jug to cover a light bulb (be sure to do it safely so the lightbulb doesnt burn the plastic) add 2 to 3 of those around your coin, and you should have ample light to choose from. it might be asier with a digital camera that allows you to adjust settings like aperature and speed. </p><p><br /></p><p>the easiest answer is to practice, and see what method works for you. Because there are so many different cameras out there, a setup that works for 1 member on 1 camera, wont work for another using a different camera. </p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck - and dont be afraid to start a thread showing some images you took and asking for comments or suggestions <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
