my simple setup to take photos of my watches
By: terbaboom : May 26th, 2021-04:30
i didn't bother to get a lightbox and so, experimented a little before settling on the following setup... focusing is manual and the camera settings are aperture f/22, shutter speed 1/125 and ISO 100 with the use of an off-camera flash. the lens is a 60mm...
Superb !

Better!

I can recommend some Bergeon 6033 Rodico, the Original Green Putty...

or Bergeon 7033 Rodico Premium Watch Cleaner or a similar product... the "problem" with macro photography is every speck of dirt shows. The second shot image with a brighter 'exposure' setting or post processing is (IMO) an improvement on the original. Ca...
thanks, Casey!

from my own limited experience, using a flash does yield better results

Sounds so simple. Thanks for the explanation. Will try to reproduce a pic or two. Might take me couple of years though...

Great photo.

Explain me one more time because the way I read it you put piece of paper over the watch??? Great DoF and with f/22 thats to be expected. Have you ever tried lens more open (less DoF) but then take multiple exposure with focus stacking? Not that I have bu...
thanks, Jurry!

the piece of paper will be covering the lens, off-camera flash and watch, i.e. the 3 items will be under the piece of paper, so that unwanted light is blocked i have not tried focus stacking before. frankly, i don't know much about it, only read that it i...
A now I understand.

Focus stacking (or bracketing never know the exact term) works fairly simple and works good for macro. The function is built in my camera so all I have to do is set nr of photos set exposure. Then it will take ie 6 photos and every time focus point shifts...
