I'm a heathen, all photography and video is shot on an iPod Touch. If I need an ultra close up, a hand held magnifier or my glasses over the lens :thumbup: My telephoto is a cheap spotting scope. |
| Arbalist:
A large piece of card or a cloth is useful to put behind whatever you're taking a picture of to hide the background. |

A plain coloured dark towel works really well as it absorbs stray light and lets your eye dwell on the subject matter. Decent flash gun helps as well with a diffuser. Have fun. |

I agree Howsitwork, Plus, if you don't have or cannot find your flash diffuser I have found placing a facial tissue (Kleenex) over the flash works wonders and gets rid of hot spots / glare in the photo. Specially if you have to work up real close it also cuts down the flash strength. John B |

Has anyone used those little photo pop up tents on eBay, £20 for a 50x50cm or there shouts. I'm just thinking its a white background and should help with light. |
