[QUOTE="nerosmyfavorite68, post: 8337368, member: 134416"]Good points. I'd like to find something out of the box if possible. My neighbor has already been a saint and helped me with various things around the house (putting up the security camera, etc.), and I don't want to bother him if I can avoid it. I was on a photography forum for a bit. I could ask suggestions there if there's an out of the box solution. I'm off next week, so I can study things more then. I also treated myself to a [I]really[/I] nice huge Justinian follis. I've really been going to London Ancient Coins a lot lately. Pretty nice coins for relatively moderate prices. Perhaps two good things will come of this. I will have photographs of my coins and I'll learn about manual photography. Even though I generally know what ISO to use, the manual photographs ALWAYS come out blurry or sub-par. :mad: Even after watching how-to vids and copying the specs of successful auto pictures (under the same circumstances). My dSLR (Sony a-77) - 2012 vintage - is a bit long in the tooth, but it takes fine pictures of record labels and people. I'd like the next one to be a canon or Nikon, but that would mean having to get lenses all over again.[/QUOTE]
