Thank you PanzerAce1944 for enjoying this thread

I am using a Nikon D5100 (old camera 16Megapixel sensor - latest version is the D5300)

Lens is the Nikon 85mm DX Macro lens

The "trick" is in the lighting actually and tripod - if I have a tripod adapter for my iphone 6 I could also get such shots too from the iphone as well . {sm4}

DM101, Thanks for the reply. I guess that lens does make big difference !

DM101, You really do continue to post crystal clear, sharp photos. Perfect for a Toy Soldier Catalogue !

Most tanks at the time ran on diesel, a safer and less flammable fuel than gasoline. Instead the Sherman’s powerplant was a 400-horsepower gasoline engine that, combined with the ammo on board, could transform the tank into a Hellish inferno after taking a hit.

Sherman’s comparatively thin armour (ranging from 25mm to 100mm) could be penetrated by the Panzerfaust. If they were lucky, the tank’s five crew might have seconds to escape before they burned alive. Hence, the Sherman’s grim nickname — Ronson, like the cigarette lighter, because “it lights up the first time, every time.”
