[QUOTE="KSW, post: 4493908, member: 8708"]Thankyou! I have a 2 year old iPhone 11 which has an ok camera on it but the game changer is the app Camera +2. It has a brilliant macro setting that is fantastic for close ups like the bells above and on the auto setting is great for slightly larger pieces. It has a much better depth of field than just the phone camera so less shadow. very occasionally I still need to take a photo through a loupe too but it’s not often. That app and a (very) cheap light box from Amazon works well for me. The app cost £3-4 a few years ago and the light box about a tenner. Only thing I’d change is maybe have a light box with options as to where the light comes from and also with a hole in the top. You might need a new phone ;):)[ATTACH=full]392144[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
