<p>[QUOTE="lehmansterms, post: 3452480, member: 80804"]If you have the ability to adjust the white-balance of your camera, that would probably cure the "silvering" you're getting with the photos of the BU cents. Also, you may be slightly over-lighting the subject and blowing-out some of the color that way. Try moving the light source (or your photo-stage if the lights are fixed) a small distance farther from the light source. The intensity of the light varies inversely to the square of the distance between source and subject, so in a case of mild over-lighting, moving only a few inches farther away can make all the difference in color-accuracy without post-processing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
