TonysPics Valued Member United States 178 Posts	Posted 07/28/2009 1:41 pm Thanks, Bill. I used the "auto" setting on a Kodak EasyShare, and I used the overhead fluorescent lighting at the coin shop. Report this Post to the Staff
murty Pillar of the Community United States 1353 Posts	Posted 07/28/2009 3:41 pm Tony, I have a Kodak EasyShare and get nowhere near the quality you did. I have a dx6340. Is mine too old? Do you use the zoom or anything else? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff
TonysPics Valued Member United States 178 Posts	Posted 07/28/2009 4:53 pm murty, it's an EasyShare Z710. I use Adobe Photoshop to bring out the features on the coin. I hold the coin up to my computer screen and then make adjustments to get the photo looking as close as possible to the actual coin.

I mainly like taking the photographs and getting the photograph to look like the coin. I almost feel like an artist painting a picture. Report this Post to the Staff
TonysPics Valued Member United States 178 Posts	Posted 08/01/2009 5:13 pm This is the sixth nickel in the current batch that I am photographing; a 1926 S. The gold toning is neat. Report this Post to the Staff
