Home Studio DIY Lighting Rig
October 11th, 2008I ran out of excuses not to setup my own light tent after acquiring the new camera. The idea is not original. It’s from my long hours of lurking here and there reading blog posts. The first one that caught my attention was from here. After more lurking around, I’ve found the dimensions that I need from here.
Por, kinda tabletop light u’re using, rite? how many watt per light? any sample picts shots? was the light power adjustable?
Nice setup, while I’m still planning to use the cardboard setup hehehe…
after setting up my light tent, i think the card board box method would work similarly, and it would be cheaper as well.
i’m using phillip tornado cfl 24w bulbs, and it’s no adjustable.
Aiyo… not adjustable… I think still can DIY the lamp, just buy the voltage adjuster will do hahaha~~
BTW having adjustable light can uplift creativity with snoot highlight & catchlight… wawawa… and ur lightbox seems very ngam my taste, lotz of angle possibilities there.. mbe I’ll just do one later2 ^_^
here are some cheaper/free/alternate solutions to your suggested voltage adjuster or dimmer…
(1)adjust the distance between your light and subject
(2) cover your light with transparent material
(3) do (1) and (2) at the same time
