Got a new Canon A570-IS today. I found that smaller coins are a real pain in the you-know-what, to get a good shot of, Started with Morgans and a funky toned Peace. Just thought I'd share a few, if you have any Suggestions/Critiques for the pic's, Have at it!

Thanks,
Bill

Wow! Great Macros! New toys are always fun. The only suggestion I could make is to have more than one light source. Your pictures are lighter on the top than on the bottom, if you have light from two angles, you will reduce the shadowing.

I have been looking at the same camera for an upgrade, let me know how you like it.

Thank You Very Much,
I am playing with the light sources, Currently I am using a light for growing veggies inside during the winter months. It a really great white light, Maybe I should get another for 2 angles.
So far I have had the camera for about 6 hours and can't put it down. There are so many gadgets on it, I'm slightly overwhelmed.
I studied this page/site for an entire week, and then checking the various stores around me to see what the best deal was.

I picked it up with a 4 GB Memory card for 183.00 from Sears. Not too bad of a deal.
