<p>[QUOTE=&quot;atrox001, post: 423544, member: 1338&quot;]Jeankay…if I was you I wouldn’t give up on the QX5.&nbsp; Attached are some photos from my QX3.&nbsp; First you should get out of the kids program…my QX3 went right into an imaging program in Windows 2000 then I deleted the kids stuff.&nbsp; I think if you use black and white, or just a little bit of color it works better.&nbsp; If you tilt the coin with a ¼&nbsp; inch, or sometimes 1/8 inch spacer towards the light it works better.&nbsp; I wouldn’t even try to use an external light source, I found it to be way too much trouble.&nbsp; To deal with the glare, I taped a small piece of white cloth over the light bulb.&nbsp; Also you can use a 4 X ¼ inch strip of cardboard and slowly move it between the light bulb and the coin, creating a shadow on the coin, this removes some glare.&nbsp; There are probably a good number of things you could do to improve the QX5 you just have to try…don’t give up.&nbsp; Or your alternative is to get a scope and camera…about $500 used on Ebay.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good Luck,</p><p>Larry Nienaber[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
