<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RonSanderson, post: 2853808, member: 77413&quot;]Oops, ignore the part about the phone. I knew full well that you had a Kodak camera you were using, but I got misled by the stock photo of the copy stand with the phone connected to it. If your camera does not have any other way to remotely trigger the shutter (mine has an actual remote control with a shutter button) then the timer is a time-tested approach as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>I searched the review sites and found this information &quot; Focus ranges from 24 inches (60 centimeters) to infinity in normal mode, with a Macro mode ranging from 2.0 to 27.6 inches (5 to 70 centimeters). (The minimum Macro focus distance depends on the zoom setting.)&quot; <a href="http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/Z700/Z700A.HTM" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/Z700/Z700A.HTM" rel="nofollow">http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/Z700/Z700A.HTM</a></p><p><br /></p><p>In practice you will want to zoom in so the focus distance is far enough from the coin so the camera does not block the light. Mine is about 6 inches above the coin so I have plenty of room to reach in and reposition the coin without touching the camera. That also allows enough room to position the lights so they can fully light up the entire coin&#039;s surface.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
