我想買部DC, 大約$3000, 請問有什好介紹呀? ^ ^ , SANYO 的Xacti J4如何?

[ladios_sopp]

應該要 macro 質素良好同景深夠淺............
DC唔係太合適影product相 :p

Why do u need 景深夠淺 in marco photography? I don't think!

In opposite, deeper depth of field is needed in marco photography!

For jewel photography, quality of image is very important, generally consumer DCs may not be good in these area but if quality requirement is not serious as "commerical application", some DCs may be OK.

If ur budget about $3000, Nikon CP4500 is a good choice for u.

Personally, I don't think Macro is that necessary.
What important are lighting and backgroumd. I have problem taking MP3 product shot.

[ladios_sopp]

Macro is needed becoz the Depth of field on DC too deep, which is impossible to make your background out of focus in order to higlight part of the product ! that's why macro is needed as it's the only way to create blurry background picture on DC

to DC, it's easy to take clear pic on both background and also the product. however, if you wanna highlight part of the product, pls use MACRO function

another point to use macro is, it makes product image larger in size in picture, which is better to print in out as catalog or high quality pic.

Think about it, when you taking a shot on a ring, or pair of eye ring which is relative small in size, you've to put your DC closely with the object in order to acquire reasonable size of image. You must have to enable MACRO in order to get a clear picture.

Got it?

影珠寶要有淺景深及Macro 要強, 切勿用閃燈, 打燈都不好, 最好用一個奶白色罩, 在外面打燈才會有好效果, 小弟有兩幅劣作, 沒有用奶白色罩, 只用了白色 LED 燈作補光, 再用 Photoshop 執. 真見笑了.

其實影珠寶最好用菲林, 靚很多及有質感.

Hello mr. ladios_sopp

In portrait photography, blurry background is difficult when using a small ccd dc but in macro photograpy, there may not have enough sharpness with a very small object, i.e. a pearl ear ring, if u don't step down ur lens to small aperture even with a small ccd dc!

Actually, as the object and lens become closer & closer, as magnification is increased, depth of field will become very shallow. If u don't believe that pls try it yourself.

HWC兄: give me five man! finally met someone know the way to take product picture :D

the diamond in picture 2 looks not clear enough, probably it's owing to the limitation on F717 macro quality. Picture 1 looks good

DSLR / SLR + macro len will make much clear and texture picture. And it's important to use macro len with even life-size 1:1 too

ladios sopp brother!

Thanks a lot. I've just learned it from some members here. Also, there are some foreign web sites to teach this teahnique but I forget the linking.

[HWC]

Also, my freind is a product photographer. He always takes silver product photos. He also use this method to take, but using film as DC is not good for it.

[HWC]

Do you work in jewelry company? But I am.
I think your photo is not so good.

Please read my message clearly " 最好用一個奶白色罩, 在外面打燈才會有好效果"

This is a method from International Jewelry Society.

+++ No one use 打晒spot in the real jewelry world.

肥仔王, 睇下人地點影啦, 無厘頭影隻馬仔, 表面又反晒光, 又反映了其他物件, 影珠寶唔會直接打燈, 睇下以下條 link 啦.

唔怪之得這個網人人都討厭你啦, 原來是睇雜誌相扮有料的吹水冇料大師, 又唔知這影法到宜家仲用緊, 連美國 MGM 都係咁影啦 (如果吹水冇料大師以為 MGM 係美高梅, 相信你對珠寶攝影都很皮毛了.)

費事再跟D冇料大師討論, 免得學錯師.
