Obverse is over-exposed; reverse is good but needs to be rotated CCW a bit and needs some levels adjustments. Make sure the white box is over the brightest area of the coin or the camera will not set exposure correctly.

Sorry, I am a harsh critic. Does look better. Your composite looks better than the original pic you posted.

You need the M42-RMS adapter. It will attach to the bellows, and objective attaches to it.

Nice colors. They will be even more vibrant with the lights at a higher angle.

Hello OcalaFlorida. I've been researching DSLR's on CC for a little while. I've been thinking about what I can buy just for macro use (no interest in any other photography). I looked at some used DSLR's on ebay and wondered what else I must buy to get just the macro shots (very little knowledge of photography) but your posts (and SuperDave's) have helped me understand I do need more than just the body and a lens. The various models like Rebel, EOS, T1, T3, etc... are what I've looked at. I don't think I need anything cutting edge, a used older model should do. I'm on a fixed income so spending $$$ for the sake of getting the "ultimate" is not gong to happen. Only coin pics are in view. Would appreciate your comments on the various Canon models I might consider. I'll list only a few current ones that I've looked at. Some are only selling the body, some have other accessories I may or may not need. (Looks like there are a lot of cheap "for parts only" cameras I need to avoid) If the ebay URL's don't come out, email me as I am not allowed to email members yet. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Canon-EOS-R...AOSwL7VWhbhKhttp://www.ebay.com/itm/Canon-EOS-R...AOSwHaBWjDYKhttp://www.ebay.com/itm/Canon-EOS-R...AOSwFqJWhbmd |

A little more diffusion on the lights and it will look great. Single image?
