<p>[QUOTE="Eire73, post: 1050596, member: 27047"]I own 5 Nikons all take great pictures. But the camera you buy if you are shooting coins should have a macro len. with out it you might as well buy a point and shoot camera. Macro lens are not cheap. I paid less for my D40 and got a 55mm and a 200 mm lens pkg with it, then the macro len would cost. The D40 Nikon takes great pictures but I can't use it for coins. I use another Nikon point and shoot cam thats is a 10 meg camera. I will agree with all the Cannon lovers is another great choice for a camera. Again make sure you can get a macro lens to fit . I find that buydig.com has great prices and also bundles the cam,bag, SD card , and lens kit. A word to the wise unless you are going to learn how to use a high dollar camera don't buy it ...I have taken pictures of coins as well as vacations ,holidays etc ...on a point and shoot that have turned out just as good as my high dollar investment.I will also share pictures that you are really trying to get somehow seems never to turn out as well as the ones just taken... have fun and enjoy your new hobby.
