Can anyone recommend one they actually have? There are sooooo many out there.

Looking for something less than £30 to shoot still life / macro on small to medium subjects.

Ideally it needs a white background at the very least.


Cheers. biggrin

Thanks - I've seen those. They are all Hama ones and come with blue and grey backgrounds. Only the XL one is the right size, the smaller is only 40cm.

ebay "lightcube" - they're cheap and cheerful with the added bonus of a front diffuser (not in shot) with a slit in for the camera if you want front lighting too.

Cheers - what I'm looking for are some recommendations of ones that people have actually used. While I don't want Interfit-priced nonsense, I also don't want something that will fall apart after a week.

As I say, it's my understanding that it only comes with blue and grey backgrounds.
