Anyone have any good suggestions for types of lightboxes for product
photography?

I do NOT have a hip slick and cool digital SLR, and even the external
strobe connections are a *******.

Something for shooting photos for Ebay for example.


Why not just put a curtain rod on rollaround stands, and light with
halogen lamps? Put the camera on a tripod, and use the
self-timer to keep your hands from causing blur.

Flash lighting is for subjects that are moving, 'product photography'
doesn't usually benefit from freezing the action.



I need to replace the memory battery in my Fujifilm S5200, and I am
going to see if there is enough spare space to add a tiny 433 MHz
receiver to give me a remote shutter function.


sorry - 5200.

I just washed my hands and can't do a thing with them...
