Light tent / soft box help.

[Mr Noble]

Hi all,

Not been on here for many months, but starting to have some spare time again and the D200 has been dusted off


I'm keen to get some kind of light tent for shooting items for ebay and arty shots of stuff like flowers and still life etc.

Any ideas on a good one to go for?


I'm thinking this kind of thing, 50cm3 seems a good size too.

Greg, you can come and play in Bloke Studio One all day in return for a pub lunch if you like.

Problem with the Maplin one is that it isn't very big.

Hey Simpo!!

I've not been in here for years!! I have a very good friend with a pro stoodio in London that I go and play in quite a bit, but need something to take decent snaps of my watches and stuff I sell on the bay etc.


I actually think the one I've linked to is not half bad looking. Can go wrong for £15 delivered. I'll give it a go and post a review

You going to The Kessingham Hall (sp?) car show again? I have a nice new toy I could take along

I picked up the ebay one, and have had literally a 10 minute play this morning.
