<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AuldFartte, post: 7770869, member: 1869&quot;]First, I would not use any cellphone camera if you want &quot;high quality&quot; photos. None of them pick up all the detail needed for coin photography. I have used my cellphone camera lately just as an experiment (and it is a very high-quality one), and the results are not nearly as good as a DSLR or even a &quot;pocket&quot; digital camera. I am going back to a good DSLR with a macro lens.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lighting? Wow, there are so many choices out there. I got very good results with regular old desk lamps with soft white incandescent bulbs. But with the advent and great improvement of LEDs, that might be the way to go. I am going to try Ott-Lites (a pair of them) with white bulbs as previously suggested by [USER=9270]@kanga[/USER]. Trial and error is one way to go. I did that in the beginning and had varying results. I would also strongly suggest getting a piece of &quot;grey card&quot; from a camera store and photographing the coins on that card. That makes it a one-click solution to getting accurate color in post-processing with programs like Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, etc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
