<p>[QUOTE="Kryptonitecomic, post: 1055450, member: 26784"]I think the term juicing with regards to toned coin images commonly refers to additional contrast and color saturation adjustments in post processing and does not typically refer to using a strong light source though I agree that strong lighting can some times make a coin look "juiced". The way I have always explained it is if I go into a showroom to buy a car they don't dim the lights as you want to see in full color detail what you are buying. I don't think there is anything wrong with using proper lighting when taking coin images and proper lighting to me does not mean ambient light in the living room but rather under a light source. Where I draw the line is the crazy oversaturated images most sellers use on Ebay to sell their coins...that's just flat out misrepresenting a coin and is criminal in my opinion.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
