DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 02/10/2012 3:04 pm I have created a target that helps me determine if my camera is perpendicular to a coin, and whether the lens has created any distortion--which is very useful setting up a camera and correcting the image with post-processing software like Photoshop. The concentric targets are sized from 10mm to 50mm, and one has a black field to facilitate knocking the coin out to a black background. These targets are in PDF format, and if you want the file, PM me. Edited by DVCollector 02/10/2012 4:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff
