Home/Portable Studio kit for novice/beginner/casual photographers

This is all hogwash, and should be summarily ignored.

Why?

Because you don't know what you're talking about.

Point noted. I wasn't trying to be sarcastic, but was genuinely wondering why novice or casual photographers would NEED studio equipment. As I stated above, cultural and social differences at play here. I cannot afford to spend big or even moderate amounts on my hobbies.

If you're just a casual photographer, all you need is a camera. Personally I wouldn't spend so much money on what is essentially a hobby. Studio equipment is used by professionals or those looking to make a career out of photography.

This is all hogwash, and should be summarily ignored.

Why? Casual/novice photographers don't need a studio nor equipment especially on a tight budget. Also this OP posted in the beginner forum. I was not aware of the background for this post and hence the advice. The post was subsequently moved here.

If a casual photographer wants to do studio type work, then yes a casual photographer needs items like this. just because as a casual shoter you dont shoot photos like this doesnt mean this person doesnt.

Thanks. Point noted. I will remove my earlier post from this thread as it was not meant as technical advise and my post is now causing this thread to go off topic.
