No that's how it came out of the camera.....

Thanks - here is an example - note the fuzziness and loss of detail around the edges for example....

Thankyou ill try adjusting the settings as you say :encouragement:

I have attached two photos to show our setup and my camera settings - to be honest I cant see my boss changing the lights as the photography gets a fair amount of traffic (unfortunately) so things get knocked occasionally and a couple of other members of staff use the setup from time to time for...

We use a lightcube with LED panels around it which seems to do a sufficient job so I'm thinking glass is the way to go as an 'upgrade' - currently my photos come out ok but when you zoom in there is a fair amount of fuzziness in places. I have experimented with settings on the camera and reduced...

Thanks - can you suggest a good lens then please?

Hi guys, have been using a Nikon D5300 for work Product Photography for a couple of years now and time has come to possibly upgrade the camera so we can give this one to another factory for them to take their own photos. I have been fairly happy with the camera using the kit lens and after some...

So the move to 1000w made quite a big difference - so did moving the green screen further back and also moving the camera back and zooming in at 45mm. We are fairly happy with the final outcome now but have found that white card scrims still need to be held in the right position to create...

Thanks epatsellis! thats a lot of helpful info!! Your setup/equipment is mind-boggling....i hope i can get to a stage one day where i can justify/afford all that lovely kit! As it turns out my management changed their minds again and now we've ended up with a green-screen setup - which im...

Brilliant - thanks again guys - hope to come back with something better shot with flashguns or strobes sometime soon :icon_salut:

Thankyou! - how about the 250W output of each light? is that good? medium? poor? I'm a complete beginner when it comes to strobes...

Would you mind giving your opinion on this setup please? seems to good to be true - the price isnt the most important thing for the company but i was also considering this one for my own use at home for ebay photos etc...

Yes i was considering strobes - i have battery powered off camera flashes at home but wasnt convinced this would be workable due to unreliable power source. I found these for example: GODOX 250DI Photo Studio Strobe Flash Light 250W 220V Lighting Lamp Head 【IE】 would i need some kind of soft...

Thanks John, interesting reading - i will skip the blue backdrop as im not convinced it would remain a consistent colour, plus we sometimes need the background cut out for other markets outside the UK. Are you saying the LED's are a waste of time? this is my first time using them and im not...

Ouch! ok i will try that as well

Soooooo......i decided to rip the whole setup down and start again from scratch - i moved the cube to one side as i have never had much joy with them myself on previous projects and set up the basic paper backdrop with the two LED panels and tried to block as much surrounding light as possible...

Sorry my bad - i didnt want to link to an image on our own company website as i felt this wouldn't look very professional

Oh this is just a link to an image - can you send me a link to the actual calculator please? its the best one ive seen so far...

It was shot against white and we add in the blue afterwards as its our company colour....thanks

So to avoid confusion i have included a smaller part to highlight my struggle - the image that i am aiming for IS ALSO OUR PROPERTY SO PLEASE DONT REMOVE IT AGAIN(!) The setup: The problem (not sharp from front to back) can you see the focus fall-off on the left hand side? What i am aiming...
