<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Denis Richard, post: 26579976, member: 112673&quot;]In many areas of photography, motion can force a compromise in sharpness—think of fast-moving subjects or quick “grab shots.” But coins don’t move. In a controlled, static environment, the only factor that should limit sharpness of a coin photo is encapsulation or, if using axial lighting, the quality of the glass. (Assuming the camera and lens are accurate.)</p><p>With the TrueViews shown above, there was no intentional trade-off—sharpness wasn’t sacrificed to enhance color. The images were simply out of focus. Likely because focus isn’t checked on every coin. The system might be calibrated once a day, an hour, or even once per shift, and then a preset setup is used. They allow only seconds per coin while coins are run through. This normally works well, but if the focus drifts, every coin afterward will likely suffer until the next calibration.</p><p><br /></p><p>Fortunately, I don&#039;t photograph coins on an industrial scale like PCGS, and I take the time to focus every image. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1693635[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
