Response to Lighting

from Dave Nacy (dnacy@sj.ptc.com)
I've got a TRV9, too and have recently run up against lighting issues. I took a couple of those aluminum reflectors that you can get at Home Depot for about $7 and added a couple of 75W halogen bulbs. These were used relatively close up to the talent and did a great job in getting me well light, properly colored skin tones. I'm planning on adding a couple of those 500W halogens on stands to eliminate background shadows, etc. The 75W halogen clamp on reflectors, along with two 1 foot long 2x4's, and a tripod make pretty good copy stand for shooting artwork/photo's. Just clip the lamps to the 2x4's on end, aim at your piece, and shoot!
