hi,

I need some information about lighting equipment.. I am going to
photograph a lot of food items for using in homepage and other type of
advertizment.
i have had big difficulties to shoot bottles. i sell top quality olive
oil and balsamico vineager and I need to take pictures of good
quality. I uss a Pentax K10d and pentax flash 540, pentax 16-45 and
several screwmount pentax lenses. I have found that there is some
tents that professional photographers use for such photography. When I
chech online shops like B&H I see a lot of different types such that I
cannot decide what I should buy. I hope someone with experience can
forward me to something compact and not very expensive.
sorry for my bad English.

best regards,

Mogh

Something weird about your post my newsreader bombs out.

I guess it all depends on what kind of look your looking for. I would
think most
of the time soft dispersed lighting would be best. Umbrellas sound
like the thing to use, with
strobes at different angles.
