The Problem
Coins present several problems for most photographers,
They
are small and highly reflective. Many professional photographers would
struggle to take good quality photographs of coins. It has taken us
eight years of hard work, trial and error to get where we are now.
Digital SLR Camera
In
our opinion, the best way to get great photographs is to invest in a
good camera. Many of the modern digital cameras have very high
specifications and are good value, but for best results you should look
at an SLR camera. SLR stands for Single Lens Reflex, and this type of
camera normally has interchangeable lenses. Ten years ago, a digital
SLR camera would have cost you about £10,000! You can now buy something
better for under £500.
