Taking Pictures Jewelry
After countless hours, sweat and tears, we finally got some great pictures of our silver jewelry for the site. Thus we obtained the best results. We decided to go with the black background of silver and gold black and white to yellow gold. Their fans easier for us to produce decent shot with a black background on silver. To begin, the first thing you need the right tools for the job.
For the camera, you need a digital SLR camera with a good macro lens. After a light box is needed to filter, and even light, at least three of 30 watts (or almost) is fluorescent white lights and a good tripod. The power lights are not as important to obtain a very pure white against the yellow color of most bulbs. If you plan to take pictures of rings or other small parts standing, photo little wax is very useful, and can be found on eBay for ten dollars. For black background using a folder at low prices on glossy paper. This can be discarded when its dirty and the brilliance of silver jewelry gives a pleasant shade. Once you have your computer, the two most important in taking the picture are the jewels of good lighting and camera settings. You want a place reserved only for bright region, because once you want to stock to return to work without much adjustment.
To set the lighting needs of a table which has enough space for at least a distance of two feet around the light box. This will allow some flexibility to adjust the lights when necessary. Adjust the light box on the table with her black platform in the center and the position of a lamp on each side and a light above the box. Three lights should be a lot of silver and White Gold on a black background. The box should be sealed at the top to filter the light higher, and you must make a hole for the camera lens if you want to get a top-down perspective, if one is not now. Make sure all other lights are off in the region who are working, you do not want the overhead lighting to interfere with the vaccine. Position the camera on the tripod with the only goal through the hole in the top of the light box.
The goal of each image is the approximation a final decision as possible without using an image program. Reflection on silver jewelry, it is difficult to resolve a large number, apart from playing in the background. We take most of our plans with a high f stop capturing the entire room, to begin work there and if you are looking for an artistic effect. The shutter speed should be slow to gain exposure to dim light, and adjust if possible, its white balance to fluorescent light option. Usually begin to F36 and the shutter speed to 15 from there.
Each piece can take some tweaking to get the perfect shot. If the group is the kind of shooting Silver jewelry such as rings or Earrings small, it is easier to do more things at once without much change in the position of the equipment. Often the experience of having a large picture of a ring at an angle, for example, and continue along the rings of multi-angle. Good picture taking!
