Info all by Eusebius --Eusebius (talk) 10:03, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose It's a very nice and neat picture and technically correct, but as a FP I'd rather prefer a more general view (with slightly better DOF) and no kitchen (? :) ) reflections. Masur (talk) 16:38, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I definitely understand. Incidentally, if someone has advice on how to better control these reflexions... Shooting varnished brass objects is a nightmare. --Eusebius (talk) 16:52, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

When we were shooting some lab. glassware (images soon to be uploaded - plenty of them) we used one of these "shadowless tables" (not sure whether the name is right, but hope you got an idea) with additional "screens" on sides (black carton board) to prevent reflections of the room in the object and to nicely enhance contours visibility.

I have some ideas for background screens, but they need space... I'm not sure what a shadowless table is, but if it is based on light polarization, it cannot help for metal reflection, if I remember correctly my optic lectures. Thank you anyway. --Eusebius (talk) 20:08, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

[1] - and you can place lights around it, and they gonna be nicely dispersed. Masur (talk) 20:57, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Except that with a trumpet bell, you need to have screens everywhere. Here the trumpet is in a box with only one side open, and it's still not enough. I'll work on it... but I don't have this instrument anymore, unfortunately. --Eusebius (talk) 07:38, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
