<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 921954, member: 19065"]Well, it seems you are progressing right along. The software is definitely working to your advantage. Perhaps the next thing that would improve the quality of the images would be the abilities of your lens and a macro set up. That's something that may come later when you can get more specifically dedicated equipment to try out, but for now I think you are getting metering and lighting down pat. The software helps presentation. The one particular area that I think is still troubling you, and particular to slabbed coins, is not being able to completely rid your images of light reflecting off the slab. This causes that slight milky/whitish cast or contrasty look to appear. With this issue comes the problem with the camera's focus being fixed on the slab above the coin and not the surface of the coin. That can be rectified but it's still one of those hazards with imaging slabs. I find it very frustrating myself too. </p><p><br /></p><p>Good work T$.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
