Hello all,
I am
still trying to improve my coin shots and while I think I have the base settings worked out (ISO 80, Speed,0.3, F8, @30 cm from the coin),
mt next problem to tackle is lighting.
I have a 40w Reval bulb at @ 1:00 and opposite a tinfoil reflector, you can see I am getting to much light on top while the tinfoil improves the lower half.
I have tried several materials for a light filter,bubble wrap,sheet of paper,zip lock bags, etc, but when I get the brightness out the bottom becomes to dark.
I plan on getting a second light set up but I
still need a light diffuser.
When I look at the
Forvm Gallery, I seldom,if ever see a coin with the shiny lighting.
I would appreciate suggestions as to what others use to diffuse the glare.
Thanks,
Brian
