setting up a studio to photograph paintings HI I am setting up a studio to photograph original art, paintings. In the past I have been photographing outside which is not always great. I have purchased a MAMIYA RB67 so that I can get good resolution and large positives for scanning. I now need some lights. Can you please advise . They will need to be as close to natural light as possible to get the colours correctly. I think I will need 2 which would be set up at about 45 degrees to the work or do I need flash to achieve the correct colour. I would like to avoid flash if poosible as some of the paintings have gloss and at least with fixed lights I can see when setting up the best arrangement. thanks Lindsey

get some flash with modeling lights. otherwise you'll need a color correction filter if you don't get daylight balanced continuous lights.
