<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 26755974, member: 1765&quot;]Good info and good points, Denis.&nbsp; Product shots must serve the product.&nbsp; Exposing a customer to too much detail can inadvertently show just how little detail there is, or worse, inviting the viewer into a forest of microscopic defects that really don&#039;t matter.&nbsp; Given enough magnification, every coin is ugly.&nbsp; Graders only pull out magnification greater than 5x if a potential issue requiring further investigation catches their eye.&nbsp; I usually use no magnification when grading, leveraging my nearsightedness.&nbsp; When people are looking at full-size TrueViews to scrutinize the quality of a coin, they need to take a few steps back from their monitor.</p><p><br /></p><p>My goal when shooting any coin is to take a picture that would get the coin sold quickly, not leave any money on the table, and not have it returned.&nbsp; It&#039;s an optimization problem.&nbsp; Here&#039;s my latest shot of a coin I just bought.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1708493[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
