I am ashamed to admit it, but I''ll have to ask my appraiser to take photos of my favorite items to post here. I just never photographed gems myself. I have a 9.1 Casio and a 7 Sony digital cameras. They work great for travels. My Casio pictures of alexandrite, however, came out in two blurry patches, purple and green. (At least the camera is color-sensitive). I do not want to invest in expensive equipment because to me jewelry is a hobby, but could anyone recommend a cheaper camera that I could use for a start? I tried to follow advises posted here about using proper light and a tripod (a stack of books in my case) but I think I have to start with a camera. An advice will be greatly appreciated.
