Geram la Macro's.Sometimes needs to have tripods or monopods to do the job to steady it.

use tripod also difficult
because the object keeps moving
unless shooting benda mati

must learn from ryzan76

respect
after experiencing macro shot myself, makes me respect people who take macro shot more

Ryzan, try to rearrange your product to make it more appealing in the photo. Look at some magazines to see how they arrange their products for a product photo.

One shot for photo SPAM! Another photo from my China trip:


This was shot in a silk factory in Suzhou, China. The little blob in the middle is a silk worm cocoon. The machine was used to extract the silk from the cocoon. This factory makes a lot of silk products.

bro,there's shadow in ur second pix in the lower part....i think if there's no shadow,could be better...my not-so-expensive-like-highend-lense comment....

ryzan76: product photography is all about lighting and the placement of the product. Depends on what are u shooting, what i mentioned are the most critical part of the photography. Here's my example of product photography using 2 different lighting:



btw, since u wanna shoot the box of the F58, i suggest u to put the actual product and the box side by side.

any1 here got a tammy 1750 that i can try try? already manage to ask spooky to test his siggy 17-70...but was quite surprise that it is not a constant f2.8...

where you located?

haha....how much you got your lens and when? filter size 72mm?

Both doesn't look good for me. One is underexposed, another is overexposed.

there is no right or wrong with ur pics...i like the second one...follow ur instinct bro...u can call it a new type of photography...

p/s:got dust d la in ur sensor...

For the first shot, you can notice that the lower part is covered by the shadow. Perhaps a DIY reflector to bounce some light to fill in the lower part?

For the second shot, you can notice that the color is slightly washed out, means not that pinkish due to overexposed.

Just my 2 cents

Oh? You want to see the lens attached to a camera? Err... ok. I remember I have a photo of this lens attached to an A300. Here you go:

hensem.... tapi rosak
