<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3729487, member: 19463"]I'll stick with my "real camera" Canon dSLR. The miniature sensor size used in phones and excessive digital enhancement of the images make the results harsh to my eye. These show a much reduced overall view and a cropped from the same file but not reduced section. The unreduced files make good 20x30" prints but who wants prints of coins that big? </p><p><img src="https://pbase.com/dougsmit/image/140681421.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://pbase.com/dougsmit/image/140670999.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>If you use extension tubes, you can get close for uncropped small coin details with a real camera, too, but CT won't accept files that large so it is hard to demonstrate here.
