Products Shooting? I'm new in photography and looking for help about product shooting for printing catalogue and Web sites. The products I want to shoot are medical/surgical instruments made of stainless steel, soccer balls, leather garments, leather and textile gloves, etc. I have a Nikon D80 with 18mm-135mm AF-S Dx Lens. what other accessories do I need for setting up a small studio?

Hi Khurram, You need lights, preferably strobes. A couple of strobes with about 300 watt-seconds would probably do. You should also build a couple of light panels or buy them. There is an article here about making Light Panels, the article under Resources. The tripod is also very important; Manfrotto makes some very good ones. You may want a lighting tent, but I usually get along without one. Thanks, John

Hi, Thank you, John, for your advice. Please suggest any online tutorial for my specific photo shooting requirements. I mean how to manage aperture/lighting/shutter speed, etc., for still products shooting. Thanks!
