Nothing but white with my Coolpix 4500.

I'm trying to take a photo in Manual mode in macro. Everything looks good but when I snap the picture, all I am getting is white. The coin is in a PCGS slab on
a black background. Anybody know what I might be doing wrong. In auto mode it does okay but there doesn't seem to be much control over the output. Thanks.

Make sure you are taking pictures inside a dark closet with only the light coming underneath the door then it should be alright.
Otherwise, set your shutter speed to about 1/60 to 1/250 of a second and then your pictures should be alright.

What about slab glare?
Hey that works too.
