Hi Everyone, Appologize in advance if this topic has already been answered. How can a person take an enlarged photo or scan of a coin ? I have a pretty decent digital camera, however, I find it very difficult to take a good photo. The scanner works good, but not sure how to enlarge the image. Can anybody offer some suggestions ? thanks in advance
Im not very good with scanners, but I have two digital cameras and was always having trouble taking close up of paper money and coins. There should be an option for MACRO mode on your camera. This will take close up from about a inch away with great detail. Look in your owners manual for macro mode. It should walk you through step by step. Hope this helps
Never enlarge an image. All you'll succeed in doing is causing the pixels to show. Best method is to start with the image larger than you need, then reduce it to an appropriate size. Now if you're talking about creating a larger image with your scanner, then you need to increase the dpi. 600 works quite well. But the bottom line is, cameras work better with coins than scanners do.
