Thank you for your input. The camera is on a photo board with camera stand and the shutter is triggered by remote. The coins are lit via "axial" lighting and tipped slightly from the horizontal by a "shim" to overcome direct glare/reflection from the coins to the lens. This has taken a lot of trial and error to remove the inherent light "glare" problems with mint condition gold and silver coins.
Yes I have touched up a little, but only a little, with the "One Step Photo Fix" setting in Paint Shop Pro X7.

We have finally learned how to photograph gold and silver coins to produce a quite acceptable result. We finished up using so called axial lighting.and as you can see the result at least looks like a shinny new coin.

G'day, what a great handle. You live in one of my favourite spots in the world. I am am coming back one day.
My biggest problem here at the moment is finding time to stop reading and learning. To think of all the years I have wasted working for a living.

Thanks Aksel but I am afraid that leads to yet another unfunny joke by MS. You try to install Ice and it says you need to install "Visual c++2013 ..." So you do that and Ice can not see that it has been installed, so you go round and round and round until you give up. Using Windows 10 BTW.

Thank you all so much for your input. I use Corel PaintShop Pro for image editing but as with my camera knowledge I am only a bit above beginner. An eBook mentioned in the forums which was written about the K-x has proved very useful.
I will try and post in the correct forum next time. Thanks again.

G'day all, my first post after many hours of very much enjoying the learning experience that this forum has provided. Thank you all very much.
I have a love of scenery, especially Western Australian scenery. I would like to get a firm like Redbubble to make me some wall large prints in various sizes. Therefore my first rather basic question is what settings do I need to pay attention to in order that my images can be enlarged to poster size. I have got the impression that just about any shot I take will be OK to enlarge but is this correct.
Thanks and cheers
Mac
