Well, I tried to take some better pics. How do you guys get such clear closeups?  I tried my 6 mp camera and my 12mp and still no good.  Are you using SLR's?  Also, thanks for the interest in my watches, I know they arent rare or anything but I really like them.  Cant afford to drop a few grand on one watch.  I can dream though.  I am just happy to find guys who I can talk watches with.  Scott

Thanks for sharing all that eye candy. :D :cool:

Just practice like crazy with the pics I have come a ways with mine but have a long way to go before I am truly happy. I use digital.

I take the pics at a larger pixel size and then crop and shrink down to the size I want. ;)

Nice collection Scott...  and what the dawg said - I use highest resolution setting, macro and then crop, resize and adjust for lighting in a photo manager...  you'll get the hang of it after awhile.. ;)

The trick to a nice watch picture is to use the macro function and to have lots of light (not just a desk lamp, but light from all angles).  Some here use light tents and filters to make great pictures.  I picked up a light tent from ebay for $30 - it works wonders and the camera I use is just a Canon Elph SD700.

Dang... looks like you should have stock in SAH!! Nice watches!!

And the pix are all about the light. Natural is the best, if indoors a light box is required... Keep working on it... you'll get it!!

Thanks for all the great advice!  Yes, I know what you mean about SAH.  I live in a pretty rural area and there isnt really anything locally I like. Also, I just dont have alot of time to go out looking.  Too many irons in the fire. SAH just makes it too easy for me.  I do have to say though, there are only a few more I would like to get until some new models come in.  Scott

Scott,

I would have liked to have seen a description below the watches so that I knew for sure what they were. I know what most of them are, but there are a couple I wasn't sure of.

Sorry about that,  I am new to this posting pics thing.  I tried to put on one but it scattered out the words. The first pic is Akribos automatics, rose skeleton and the red carbon fiber. The red is one of my favorites.  2nd pic l to r, Akribos multi function, Skeleton w/domed crystal, world timer chrono w/swiss quartz.  3rd Big dial Akribos quartz chrono and AdeeKay quartz chrono.  4th are both Louis Bolle autos with retrogrades.  5th both are SeaPro 300m world timer chronos.  Hope this helps.  I will have to practice with my posts.  Scott
