Just wondering how to create a superb product shoot.
I tried but the join of the paper is so obvious that I have to turn it to b/w sweat.gif
Any idea of creating a superb background using A4 paper for product shoot ?

Really new in DSLR. Hope all pro and give me some advice blush.gif

Place the drink nearer to you, and further from the background so that the part where the paper joins together will blur and blend together

Alternatively, play around with the aperture, set it to wider values.

If you get it right, you'll get something like this smile.gif

Try a few more times and you'll get better results.

I doubt he shot it using any flash. IINM he mount it on a tripod and shoot without flash. Not using light tent too, just a piece of A4 i guess smile.gif

Another problem is the short working range. Get those radio channel ones. The working range are just simply superb.

ROFL, don't feel so bad though I too said the same to those D40 users. It's just the matter of time before you upgrade to a better one. Save up more and aim higher for either D50 / D80 smile.gif

my main reason to upgrade is the AF motor... now i know the pain...you actually pay more on the lenses you get and very little choice...

It's damn challenging to shoot using D40 + 50mm f1.8. biggrin.gif
