    you could use a bit more lighting and was the table shaking sorta?
    the obv seems blurry to my eyes.. just slightly.

    i think you can do better!

    Pretty. Which model of Dino-lite do you have?

    Dino-Lite AM411T USB Digital Microscope Camera

    Its a manual focus, which is great for taking close ups, but very difficult to get the whole coin to be in focus. It seems to like Florescent light (5000K) over other types of lighting.

    The only photo editing I do is crop and resize, no color or contrast changes.

    I've been playing with it for about 6 months, and I think I'm finaly getting to the point I like it more than my Sony Point & Shoot.....

    The Sony can't do this...........

    Thanks. That's the one I was looking to buy. Pricey devils.

    I have Mark's book and I think my problem is technique, not equipment. I should practice more and get better with my point-and-shoot (Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX2).

    Bought one of the little buggers at the Atlanta Whitman show. Also bought the "copy stand" type base for it.
    Been too busy to play much though.

    BTW nice pics.

    Regards, John

    Need the following OBW rolls to complete my 46-64 Roosevelt roll set:
    1947-P & D; 1948-D; 1949-P & S; 1950-D & S; and 1952-S.
    Any help locating any of these OBW rolls would be gratefully appreciated!

    As I opened this thread for the second time, and scroll down just enough to see the date, I suddenly realize that I have been American Eagle-ized! image

    I;m ashamed to admit that I actually expected to see a 2001 or 2002 date on a SAE pocket piece!
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!

    It's tough to get the whole coin using dinolite because the slightest vibration makes the whole thing look fuzzy.

    Good job.
