Everyone here takes such good quality pictures of their coins and I can't seem to figure out how to do it. What's the secret?

good lighting and use the macro setting on the camera, it looks like a flower.

I always wondered the same thing. I tried macro setting on my camera and still wasn't having much luck, the lightingis tricky. A flsh will make it look bad but its also tough finding any other good lighting situations.

What I started doing was scanning the images and they come out as good if not better than any others I see on websites or ebay. I just have a cheap $30 cannon scanner printer, copier from walmart that works great

I just use my iphone

Look at this thread on another site.

I use a epson 310 scanner. 89 bucks at wally world.

A decent camera with a great macro setting and the hit and miss in using the flash or other light sources....once you find the right combination...you'll have great coin pictures!

The original iPhone is very low res and no flash.

Iphone 3g or better


Or...

Buy a nice camera and light it well

any scanner is a lot easier than a camera. if you use a camera, definitely figure out the macro setting. its usually indicated by a tulip-flower shaped icon.
