I am using an AM413T scope with external lighting to stop the LED glare. Thank you in advance for your help ! John Report this Post to the Staff

rmpsrpms Pillar of the Community United States 4038 Posts	Posted 11/28/2011 2:47 pm Wow, you can get an overall pic of a Morgan dollar with a Dino Lite? I didn't know they could go that wide. I don't think the Dino Lite's have adjustments for color temperature or white balance adjustments. You may need to adjust colors in software after you take the pic. They are probably set correctly for their internal LED's which are fairly blue. If you can find external lights that match the color of the internal ones you would be OK, but that's not so easy to do. Best bet is adjusting the RGB levels later with software. ...Ray Contact me for photographic equipment or visit my home page at: http://macrocoins.com Report this Post to the Staff
birdog1 New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 11/28/2011 7:05 pm [size=2][size=1][font=Times New Roman]Hi Ray, First, let me thank you for all your help. That pic was taken with my new AM413T. I had to optimize it to post it, and posting it was a pain. I got the 413 because I'm kind of a VAM geek, but very new. That pic was taken with external light 60W. The 413 creates too much glare and the LED light shows in every pic except ultra close ups. Here are a couple pics of a 1897 VAM 6A I just took today. These were using the LED lighting. I just can't seem to get full size pics w/o the gold hue. John Report this Post to the Staff
