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.

Let me know how that works out, Michael?
I have a 5300 also.
It was my first digital and is a fine backup.


Certainly.

Do you have the service manual? It's available as a .pdf file
online, but I could send a copy to you.

No I don't have that one...

I went looking for it on the net and didn't find anyplace I'd
want to risk downloading anything from.

If you wouldn't mind?

Here are a copies of the service& use manuals:
