I work for an ebay store, and part of my job is photographing the products we sell. My boss is kinda nuts about the photographs and needs them to be perfect (not blurry at all) But she only lets me take pictures after the sun has gone down which SEVERELY disrupts my work schedule.
I use a Canon A40(2mp) and she has me use tungsten, no flash 1.3 exposure and some other settings that make no sense to me.
I always thought it was better to use natural light than artificial houselight, yeah? I have a kodak z700 (4mp) at home. Is this a more capable camera? How can I convince her to let me take pictures in the daylight? What settings should i use?
Here's an example of a picture we use, just a toy against a white background at night
