Playing with my new light...
Wish my hands didn't shake so much...even though I use a tissue box to rest them on while holding the camera...shakey...3 cups of coffee probably didn't help either ; )~
Thanks for looking!

Do you use a shutter timer on your camera?

I like the overall look, sort of PCGS style, but think you might need to experiment more with positioning of the light and your white balance, the details are getting washed out as it is now.

Ditto

Seen this? No holding and forces the camera to focus. Just using a phone camera. Also make sure to use the timer function that way there is no movement by hitting the button to take the picture.

As others have noted, make use of the timer so you don't have to worry about how many cups of coffee you had ;)

lighting still needs adjusted. I'm still at AU58 or Low MS. with this lighting its hard to determine shadowing & toning from wear on the high points. if you cant get better photos I'm going with AU58
