Do it Yourself Light box
by on February 9th, 2008
I bought a brand new Nikon D80 because I’m shooting an entire product line for an on-line shopping cart. I also bought a $70 light box from WalMart and the results were poor so I returned it and built my own light box. The results were dramastically1 better.
It costed around the same amount of money but I didn’t go bargain hunting since I have a-lot work ahead of me. The best part is that the lights are florescent so no hot lights.
Materials:- 1.5 meters of cheap white fabric
- three clip lights
- three 40 watts florescent light bulbs (2,600 lumens)
- big plastic rubbermaid container
- white bristle board
I’m no master of photography but I’m happy with the results.
1 A word I unknowingly fumbled together one day: dramatic + drastic = dramastic
