[QUOTE="tmoneyeagles, post: 594462, member: 17557"]YES YES YES! I've heard about this book, and so many people recommended it! Sounds like a great book! :) Now, the original question, was asked a little while ago, but I want to answer it anyway! LOL My camera is not a high end camera... EXLIM CASIO 6 Megapixel THE ZOOM IS CRAP! (Even with marco) I don't zoom, I take pictures from anywhere from 7 inches to a little over 1 foot away. On the camera, I crop the pictures, I go to edit, then trimming, and I trim the pictures with ease. Then I clean the rest of the picture up, and make it look good, with using the crop function on my photo editor A lot of people have troubles with their cameras, and it is always mostly the same thing 1. Standing too close 2. Not having it on a focus for details 3. Not good lighting 4. Not good angles To take good pictures, it is always best to take the same picture under different angles and lighting.. I take most of my pictures, under a lamp, with the flash, with the coin on an easel. I take the pictures, somewhat hovering over the coin, about 9 inches away, and I do it with the camera going down, so I am basically standing over the coin. (THIS MAKES THE PROOFS LOOK GREAT) Here is an example of what it looks like, when I use this technique on the proof coins.
