<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RonSanderson, post: 2839299, member: 77413&quot;]I take photos with a ten year old Sony with 8.1 MP. This has a macro mode, but I can&#039;t really get close enough to fill the entire sensor with the image. This is the closest I can focus.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]671367[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>You can see that this cent only covers about 1/4 of the width and 1/3 of the height, so is about .75 MP that is useful. Your 4MP should be quite useful for general coin portraits.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a sample of the resolution. A raw cent image covers about 860x860 pixels, which is just sufficient to resize down to 800x800 for display. A nickel is a little bigger but I downsize all my photos to the same 800x800 format.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]671370[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
