Arminius Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 To create sharp pictures of coins/medals or objects with high relief: There is a photo technique called image stacking. You shoot several images focused on a different plane and the software selects the sharpest part of each and forms a composite image.
