[QUOTE="Ignoramus Maximus, post: 7743290, member: 104741"]Why not simply use a tripod? That way you can use a very long shutter speed with a small aperture for deeper focus (great for high-relief coins!). That way you don't have to use a high ISO (high ISO leads to graininess). Small caveat: it's a bit of a trade-off. Small aperture gives deeper, but less intense focus-depth. Large aperture gives intense, but shallower focus-depth Ideally, you would want to combine many pics with a large aperture (that is, small f-number with limited, but intense focus-depth) into one. Best of both worlds. There's software that can do this.[/QUOTE]
