Thanks Adrian. The shelving is on wheels so I can light subjects from behind as well. We'll see how it does on my next run of product pics.

Much less shadows with the new box.

Take another shot of the bag of chips and the windex bottle to see how they come out. There was lots of shadows on them with the old box.

Thought that looked familiar! I can selling you 4 great LED fixtures with a controller-able color, intensity, and timing. That would really make your pictures great!

Can be yours for the low price of either $2000, $1600, or $1000 depending on what condition you want the fixture in.


BTW, can we start a discussion on possible value of those Solaris fixtures? I have 4... or 5 maybe? shit I don't even know... of the 72" Solaris LED units. Second generation. All work fine. 1 has a little bit of rust on the fans at the end, 2 more were just used for 2 weeks above the current tank, and 1 is still in box in perfect order (as far as I know).

WORTHLESS TO ME... I just never bought into that line. I had high hopes for LED, and I still believe there is value in them, but for specific applications. You could still sell them on RC in a matter of minutes. Very Happy

Ask Marcye at Sea in the City. She's a big fan of the LED units. Might even sell them on consignment for you.
