<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3272837, member: 19463"]Only sometimes. I am often lazy and shoot #2 at the same crop that I shot #1 on the theory that the camera is so much overkill that I can be sloppy. The quality difference of a full frame camera is considerable. Shooting loosely also lets you stay farther back allowing more flexibility in lighting. I try to keep at least 6 inches back from the coin. When shooting small, small coins I have switched to a longer lens but the fact is most of my really tiny coins are not high enough grade to benefit from all those pixels.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
