Greetings,
I've been going through quite a learning experience trying to photograph some small italian charms. They are about 1" x 1/2", and polished stainless.
I built a small soft box and that seems to have solved the glare problem, but now I'm noticing that the images are extremely splotchy:
I've done shots with shutter speeds down to 1/8 second, but I have no idea what effect that has. I've tested with the entire range of aperture, but that doesn't seem to have solved the splotchiness.
I've got a Fujifilm s7000 -- it's taken great pictures in sunlight. Perhaps I need more light?
I've got a 60w and 40w right now, and my soft box is covered with a semi-transparent shower curtain.
Any ideas?
