Woo! Damn clean pics! all nicely lighted. Can share how you setup?

Owh really DE ar? I thought to get orange one cause the orange really nice & special.

I just put 3 tungsten light on top cover with reflector plus white color film as background. both left n right side cover with white card board. Camera set at tripod with 17-50f2.8 lens. Other camera setting as below.

ISO: 200
Shutter speed : 6 second
Mode : Manual
Aperture : F22
WB : Custom

I prefer ur signature piture lighting set up. Really look impressive. Mind to share how the set up too?

My set up cheapskate punya haha. I use led torch to paint the car. Just raise the led torch above your car (high enough as long u cant see it in your viewfinder) and brush over the light on the car in 1 direction so that the white "lines" reflection on the car window will be straight instead of going in all directions.

My settings,

Aperture, depending on you how sharp you want the picture to be I usually use F14.
Shutter, 8-10 sec
ISO fixed @ 200
WB Auto.
Post proceess, kacau the vibrance abit so that the cars paint will stand out more.
