27th Infantry Battalion (The South Australian Scottish Regiment)
The cap badge of the 27th Infantry Battalion.
Founded in 1903 as the South Australian Scottish Regiment it has been amalgamated into the Royal South Australian Regiment I have tried all manner of things (Macro, flash, no flash and various distances) however I have found it difficult to overcome the shine on this silver badge |

I found that for silver badges such as this, set your camera to macro (close in) mode, no flash and take the photo in good natural light.

I did that a number of times and what I posted was the best of the bunch. I photographed the badge at night so could not do so under natural light (only florescent) and had intended to photo other white metal badges during daylight to see how that worked out. The 27th badge was unusually bright |

To add to my previous comments, I get the best results from photographing in the morning light and indoors. I find that gives me the best results.

I have the 30-42 version . When I work out how to post photos I will put it on. I do know natural indirect light is best for shiny reflective badges.

1930-42 badge
Here is a photo of mine. Notice how the two middle antlers dont go all the way to the edge.
The post war version does. Ed |
