<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RichardT, post: 8335898, member: 100005&quot;]A lot of good advice has already been given. The rig that Doug showed will work, as will any halfway decent, cheap tripod designed for cameras. The main thing is to allow the camera to face straight down. </p><p><br /></p><p>You already noted that your best photos are in the morning or day. That should mean there&#039;s at least some natural light in your photos. If you can, you may want to consider using natural light in your photos instead of a lightbar. It&#039;s much simpler, costs nothing, and greatly reduces the amount of setup you need. Natural light will also reduce the effect of shadows cast on the coin by the camera.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s really not that difficult to take decent coin photos. All you need is:</p><p><br /></p><p>1. A way to get the camera to face down, without falling</p><p>2. Sufficient lighting, natural light if available is the simplest and requires the least setup</p><p>3. A way to either press the shutter button remotely, or if the camera allows it just set a two second delay[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
