Light box

Recommended Posts

Can someone please give me the link to the easy light box thread that was here not too long ago. My searches did not work. Thanks.

heres the one i made a year or 2 ago, actually found the org link on a search

it took me about 20 mins tops. I didnt glue anything as the PVC was tight enough fitting.

the lights you use are very critical in how the picture comes out.

white bed sheets work fine for a cover. I have 3 lights on mine.

if you go cheap on lights you will see what a difference it makes.

also make sure you have the correct setting in your camera.

I am able to hook my camera up to a PC and take a picture form there so I can go a very slow shutter speed.

I have one of those wal-mart tripods I got as a gift and I have a full size alum one that I bought long ago.

the wally world one moves a little bit and is not sercure when you click the button. make sure all the joints and everything are screwed down tight I use it when I am shooting the pics from my computer instead of actually touching the camera.

however when I am touching the camera or not near the pc, I use the heavy duty ones, you can run a really slow shutter speed and have crystal clear pic.

I end up setting the light tent on a dinner table and the bigger tripod works perfect
