Wich photograpy do you like more , i want to now am i on the right way new systeem photomaking the old one thanks
The top, but it is still a little blurry/off. The lighting on the bottom one is weird and unconventional. I'm a terrible photographer so I can't give any advice on how to do better.
The top is obviously better, but I'm not quite sure it's a fair comparison. Perhaps also consider adding another light. That said, while there are certainly "better" ways, there is no one-size-fits-all "right" way to image coins, even if only because not everyone shares the same wants/needs/desires.
I agree with Nick. The top set is better but still not well focused. It's definitely an improvement though. All of your images have cropping issues. You've cut off parts of the edges of the coins during editing to blacken the background, and the overall positioning of the coins in the space also causes some edge loss. The obverse and reverse are butted very close, which seems unnecessarily tight.
Top is definitely better, but still room for improvement. The focus on the new one is still a bit fuzzy. I always use autofocus, but it sometimes has trouble with the high relief of ancients. The lighting is also important - because of the high relief, choosing the right light positions is important to showing this relief. The contrast is better in the top photo, but can still be improved. How does the color compare to that in hand? It looks more natural in the top photo, but without seeing it in hand I can't compare.
I just took this with an iPhone 6 from about 4 inches away (first attempt.) I traditionally have used the dealer photos or my own, shot with a Nikon and an expensive lens. I may reconsider my approach. This was far too easy and the resolution is killer.
