<p>[QUOTE="ForTozs, post: 8526775, member: 141432"]Thanks for the responses. Well, I guess I'll be a guinea pig then. The Tomlov DM101 and DM201 (10") both supposedly can capture whole coins. I'll probably try the $70 DM101 first and see if it meets my needs. It produces 1200x1600 images, which I think will be fine. I am mostly looking for something that I can use to photograph my collection to store in my PCGS.com inventory manager and for occassional ebay sales. I have both a DSLR and newer iPhone, which I've been using, but it's not so much a matter of quality for me, but a matter of convenience. I want to be able to rip through some coins, without needing to set up a tripod, and not have to import photos, etc. It will also be a nice plus to be able to look at a zoomed image on my computer screen if searching for errors, though the more expensive DM201 has a built in LCD screen that would probably be better for that. I plan to order this week. I'll share some images when I get it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
