50cents Valued Member United States 402 Posts	Posted 10/27/2007 11:02 pm I really like the 250D better than the 500D but most of my pictures consist of Half Dollars. Report this Post to the Staff
zacharycash Pillar of the Community United States 668 Posts	Posted 10/27/2007 11:30 pm why do you like it more? and is the 250 d compatible with the s5? Report this Post to the Staff
50cents Valued Member United States 402 Posts	Posted 10/27/2007 11:48 pm The 250D just works better for me on the halves. If I collected and took images of cents, dimes I would go with the 500D. Both will work with your S5, you will need to buy a Canon Conversion Adapter LA-DC58E and I think that it cost about $10 and the 250D or 500D will screw into the Adapter.

50cents Valued Member United States 402 Posts	Posted 10/28/2007 8:03 pm Just some El-cheap-o lights fixtures I picked up on ebay. I like them because you can adjust them right down on the coin. My copystand came with these lights. Report this Post to the Staff
shatsi Pillar of the Community United States 1541 Posts	Posted 10/29/2007 09:48 am Here's a link where you can get copy stands. I haven't bought from them so I have no idea how good they are. I believe you can do the same with a tripod. http://bkaphoto.com/detail.asp?sect...duct=DPCS129 http://www.bugeyedigital.com/produc...t_boxes.html Edited by shatsi 10/29/2007 09:49 am Report this Post to the Staff
