[QUOTE="Jeepfreak81, post: 3035475, member: 93888"]Ok guys, I finally got a few minutes to play around with pictures. Keep in mind I did the pictures and editing all in about 10 minutes, this was just a test so I could sort of get an A/B comparison. This is just a 1942 Nickel I found CRHing this weekend. Oh, and it's in a 2X2 so the pictures are taken through the mylar film. First up is my Canon EOS Rebel XS. I took this handheld holding an LED light. The flash still fired however, probably wouldn't need to if I wasn't handheld. I didn't bother taking note of shutter speed of f-stop, but I had my 18-55 lens right about at 35mm. [ATTACH=full]757031[/ATTACH] Next up is my USB Scope, handheld the LED light in a similar fashion as I did with the Canon. [ATTACH=full]757032[/ATTACH] So clearly my Canon even handheld is producing higher quality images, no surprise there. I need to come up with a simple stand to hold my camera and maybe a clamp on desk lamp so as to make taking pictures easier and even better. However, I'm not totally unhappy with the scope for what I want to use it for which would be inventory pictures of common coins I have such as circulated coins in my folders, etc. Thoughts, questions, and comments are welcome as always.[/QUOTE]
