burks Valued Member United States 118 Posts	Posted 05/16/2014 06:16 am Nice photos! I think your DSLR will only get better with time and a tripod. It's sort of neat to see the difference. The DSLR has less detail and more of a realistic, 3D look. While the microscope has better details, but a flat, dull, lifeless 2D look. How about a full coin shot of each? Just for fun!

rupester Pillar of the Community United States 1300 Posts	Posted 05/16/2014 2:29 pm Yep Macro on still working on the lighting setup.. And that seems to be the real challenge.. I read a awesome thread in the doin photography section and more or less thats what I am using.. My goal was to photograph errors. The USB microscope has its uses but there is no substitute for the images that a real camera can get.. Another user on here (wish I could remember the thread) spoke about free hand camera shooting and thats what I was trying to do here. But anyways other than the low light issue its a pretty decent image. Going to go on a little coin search today and see if I can find something new!! Report this Post to the Staff
