<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gachtor, post: 1174380, member: 26570&quot;]I follow many of the ideas in the book &quot;Numismatic Photography&quot;, 2nd edition&nbsp; </p><p>By Mark Goodman.&nbsp; Pertaining to light, he advises using artificial lighting, specifically &quot;Reveal&quot; incandescent bulbs made by GE.&nbsp; The more vertical the lighting the better.&nbsp; I have found that too much bright light gives a washed out image.&nbsp; A macro lens with manual focus on a camera with manual adjustments for everything and mounted on a copy stand is recommended.&nbsp; I suspect your iPhone with only 5 megapixels and everything automatic is not the best for accurate pictures.&nbsp; Coin photography is somewhat of an art and I haven&#039;t mastered it yet, but the nice thing about digital is you can easily try different settings and see your results almost immediately.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
