Great review of current tools and techniques August 28, 2008 I'm very new to numismatic photography, but I'm very interested in creating the best quality images of my collection possible.
This book presents a good overview of the tools (camera, copystand, lights, post-editing software) and techniques for doing this.
It is a short and easy read for the novice, and more advanced photographers should appreciate the extra sections written to go a level deeper into each topic.
Imaging coins of various compositions (copper, proof silver, gold, etc) are discussed in detail. Raw and slabbed coins are also addressed throughout, and the many sample photos thoughtfully include the camera, aperture, and shutter settings.
Thanks to the advice presented here, you don't need to spend a fortune on creating good images. But with some small tool upgrates and some hints and tricks as presented by Mark Goodman, virtually anyone can make great photos!
Fantastic Book! September 6, 2008 Mark Goodman has created a wonderful book on coin photography. Concise and easy enough for an amateur like myself to learn from.
If you sell coins on the internet, or just want amazing pics of your prized coins and medals, it is a no-brainer to buy this book!
