what cam u use?

salut! keep your konica hexanon carefully coz it's very2 rare...

avenger: i'm using nikon d40

ihsan_29: i'll keep it mind and make sure to keep the camera safely.

a girl that has Lego!

btw long time no see you around la BlueSilver, how's it going?

now about your shots. while they are great attempts, the flaw in your shots would be the background. subject is nice, background needs work.

spiderman, jeans and panties hanging around, not a nice sight.

If ur subject is a product, or model,
shoot with plain background, like white or black background.

and try to make ur photograph able to catch the viewer's attention in the shortest of time, like how ur frame ur shot to make viewer's attention attracted to it. That means, be sure and confident what u wanna convey.

for eg. Shot no. 7 and 8 for the old camera,
no offense but it is like those shots u found at Garage Sales section, where ppl shoot photos to show the product is scratchless or so.

I see you have a table lamp,
build a simple light studio, it makes alot of difference.



Keep Shooting

Added on April 3, 2008, 11:44 amHi, thanks for the comments. I will try to make the photograph more interesting but i'm not sure how. My hand is so shakey sometimes it feels like earthquake. I'll try to build a simple light studio when i have the free time.

even if have 38mm f2.8 lens, but the high iso film would cost alot for that film camera.

neways, nice bokeh.

what's bokeh?

tripod capalang one also can use mah
rm30 only

also for background...no time can simply set up just a black or white paper behind...no need light yet also can

yes. tripod got cheap type.

background can do cheap setup, just to your nearest textile shop and get while cloth. 2 meter can already.

if don't want, use mahjong paper la. heck my some of my product shots were just using white A4 paper taped together. (yes, you can see them at goldfries.com product reviews)

and then there's the lighting issue. see, #1 and #9 for the camera shot. usually the light would highlight the product, not coming from the back of the product........ well, unless you did it with intention la.

right so it's ...

1. better background (light tent)
2. tripod (cheap ones)

not necessary to have light tents. light tents cost you quite some sum.

you could DIY it for less than that.

DIY backdrop and lights
you can use any type of light, but swivel ones better.
Background can use any type of paper, size depends on what you want to shoot. If you can put it near the wall then easier, just stick the backdrop to the wall, for me I had to DIY something to hold it up
Diffuser box, any box will do, use tracing paper to cover one side of the box
Reflector I uses white cardboard.

ooo interesting. Mm... the light that you are using is white light? Cos the one that i have is yellow. And can you tell me why do you stick a piece of paper to cover the light on top?
