The ezCube
While working on the book “Digital Desktop
Studio Photography” we looked high and low for
lighting products that were easy to use AND easy
to store. We are now making arrangements to make
these products available to you at our partner site.
Neither ShortCourses nor the authors benefit
financially from any of these sales. We’re recom-
mending them because they work! Lets see why.
These two objects are normally difficult to photo-
graph because of the recesses, textures, and
reflective surfaces. What made these shots
posssible, by a photographer with very limited
experience, was a light tent called the ezCube.
When lit from outside by natural light, or lamps of
some kind, the cube is flooded with soft,
shadowless light and makes even difficult shots
fast and easy.
Here’s what the light tent looks like with a product
inside it. The front cover has been pulled back so
you can look inside. Normally, the cover is closed
and you photograph through a slit.
The best lights we’ve been able to find are those
from Smith-Victor. They are high-quality and low
cost. To make the lights even better, we replaced the
incandescent bulbs with compact flourescent
lightbulbs (CFLs) that are daylight balanced, last
almost forever, and run cool.
