LostDutchman Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 if you haven't ever heard of or seen a copy stand these things are pretty neat for taking pictures of coins. this is what it looks like and it was $90 delivered. and within the first 20 min of playing with it I took this picture.

Scottishmoney Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Sure beats the hell out of cr&ppy scans and unsteady digital shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LostDutchman Posted December 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 oh oh oh and the other cool part... it makes it easy to shoot right through a slab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Can you tell us where you bought the set? I'm seriously in the market, after resorting to taking hand-held pix in the back yard sunlight for the past few months... My copper coins & jetons need much more light and longer exposures.

BigCanadianM Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 I don't see where theres $90 worth of stuff in there Looks like something I'd make from leftover parts+valuevillage But still, that takes really good pictures! Enjoy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syzygy Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I recently bought a new copy stand as well. My old one is very small and with my new dSLR, it just was not cutting it. I saw the one that you got LD, and was definitely considering it but I ended up getting this one... CopyStand It was $48 and seems to work just fine. I did add a quick disconnect Quick release Which is fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
