Hello,
I own a simple setup with a small light tent, two tripod lights and a tripod for my smartphone. Bought all of those for like 60$ on Amazon.
The pictures I produce with this setup are fine, I guess. And fortunately for me, sales have been going great the last two weeks (sold 7 pens!)
However, there are several problems:
First of all, the light mirrors back (I hope that's the correct term in English?) from the pen, creating unpleasant bright strips on the pen.
Secondly, the background isn't completely white, but sort of light grey. The pictures don't come out very consistent from this perspective.
As I'm getting more serious in this craft, I want to upgrade this setup soon. Where should I start? How to choose a camera, what other equipment to look for?.. I'm willing to spend some money, but not something too crazy please. Thanks!
