Do you have any questions about product photography?
Really good video, I am doing product photography in textile industry can you help how to get color accuracy.
This will really help me with my product shoot. I am excited to try it!!!
Your product photography is very beautiful but if you have any editing work in photoshop you can definitely work with us we are professional photo editing company
Great info! I just did a product shoot for a client (jewelry) that went south in a HUGE way because she didn't give me any info on dimensions or specifics on her needs for her website, and when I texted her to get the details, she thought I was bugging her… and she ended up not paying me for what I did. Totally unprofessional on her part, but I ended up eating a $500 shoot. I could sue her, but then I'd end up alienating the client and the person who recommended me; it's not worth going there. I learned a lot, but it cost me $500!
Thanks for sharing this info. It wouldn't have made a difference on my shoot, but it helps in figuring future shoots, and I appreciate B&H's commitment to helping us all get better.
Lenaโs recommendations – I have a 7 year old digital SLR Nikon, can I just get a new lense for it?
The fact that most people searching for this info just have a smartphone camera and a handheld flashlight and an actual stand alone camera is unaffordable. Lol
thanks! it's really helpful, easy enough to get start.
I need certificate of product photography help me
From Egypt the land of civilization and the future … Many thanks to you, really a great video. Thanks again.
Saya sangat suka videonya
Top video
Prolly could have done the same thing with a 2019 or later smart phone tbh. I'm more interested in the background stuff and I guess the lighting tricks a little
But why is your watch so dark in those photos?
If you cant afford a camera, would a phone with good camera for example IPhone work?
I find the only thing that works is shooting next to a large window on a cloudy day…and using a small hand held flashlight to create highlights.
What do you charge for 1×1 help?
Very nice Video. Amazing.
I have everything but a product to photograph ๐
cheap? $1,795 only for the light!
I love how insanely practical this tutorial is ๐ Definitely going to try out some of these techniques at home!
Very good content. Thank you
DAT light looks like a continuous rather than a flash head to me – are you sure u know what u r talking about?
informative, simple, a lot of ideas if starting it, Great
Great video! Iโm taking photos of some metal lighter cases as product photos for an online business. How would you go about setting up lighting for something with a glossy/shine finish? Using an iPhone 12 pro tooโฆ thanks again great video!
Hoping to take some pictures of my soaps to put on my website! I'm not a pro at photography by a long shot so I appreciate you giving the "specs" as a guideline.
Great
How many shirts is this guy wearing?
Where do you get the product from for product photography? How would I get started? I hear there's a demand for it because of online shopping.
Very nice ๐๐ป
Is it just me or does anyone else absolutely loveeeee the pop of a flash! GAHHHHH ๐
6:16 I'm planning to try a manicure video / photo set – thanks for the tips !
Thanks much appreciated
Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanx ..
Hello ๐ Thank you for this video. Do you think my Fujifilm XT4 would be good for this?
Thanks for the tutorial. Do you prefer an AI tool to automate the product image editing process? I found Autoretouch very useful. Need your opinion regarding this.
