What is a white box? It's for photography

White box is used in still life photography to create a uniform, soft and reflective lighting environment without stray light.

Suitable for shooting small objects, especially stainless steel, silverware, glass products, porcelain and other objects with mirror reflection. Also known as light shed, photography light shed, folding studio, etc. There are also box-shaped ones, and the principle is similar.

Shooting a good photographic work requires mastering the following skills:

First, use a tripod.

The camera must be mounted on a tripod to prevent the camera from shaking when shooting. Try to keep the camera close to the subject, and be careful not to introduce unnecessary shadows.

Second, focus on the orbit.

Although it is not necessary for shooting, the focus track is a good auxiliary device, which can help you take good close-ups. The focal track can make the camera move along the X-axis and Y-axis in very small increments, and can accurately control the camera position and the depth of field of the picture. It is very troublesome to move the triangular bracket to the ideal position.

Third, use cable release.

Even if you have installed the camera on a tripod, if you press the shutter carelessly, it may still shake the camera, so in order to avoid this situation, I suggest you use cable release.

Step 4 Use a black or colored background

When shooting, when the background of the object is black, the shot image can be made to look the clearest. You can also use a fuzzy background, especially when the color of the subject is very strong.

5. Use reflective cards when necessary.

Wrap it in a white card or aluminum foil to reflect the light on the object and illuminate the shadow on the object. Be careful not to let this card appear in the shooting range.
