Have I Hit The Limit With My Sony Xperia Z Camera Phone?

I found that raising the coin off the background by about an inch (I use a small section of wooden dowel) caused the background to become really out of focus, which is very handy if you want to recolor the background with a simple click "fill".

also, the lighting and focus don't seem to be "fooled" by the texture of the background - it's all about the coin which appears to be floating in mid air.

enjoy your riksdaler, photography is a whole 'nother hobby !
