<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LA_Geezer, post: 2839130, member: 89393&quot;]I contacted member gbroke on page 1, second entry, of this thread but never got a response. I am completely new to photographing coins, and thought that the stand shown in the picture there might be useful to me. Upon further research into this sort of &quot;copy stand,&quot; I was able to locate several at Amazon the looked like this one, but nearly all of the buyer reviews were negative, saying that the stands could not support the weight of their cameras, that the stands were not stable enough or that the camera could not be lowered enough to take very close-up shots.</p><p><br /></p><p>Another member did answer my question about stands, but in the course of going to the links he provided, I came to the conclusion that my 4 megapixel Kodak Z700 may not be up to the task after all.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately I have been unable to find too much information that is helpful to the photographic neophyte; one look at the 7 pages of this thread is proof enough that this was intended for enthusiasts who could compete in a world-class photo competition.&nbsp; So, where should I look to get some idea of the basics, and who can recommend one of these two-legged camera copy stands? Any and all suggestions will be appreciated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
