Am Vidit, from India. Just recently I was requested by a relative to click some jewellery for valuation and this got me interested and want to know more about it.
I'm not satisfied by my capture. I need your help improve my skills.
Camera: Nikon D5100
Lens: AF-S DX Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G - Nikon
Lighting conditions: Rectangular SoftBox Cube with cool light from left, right and rear/behind
I need to know that is it the Lens(cheapest in Nikon Micro Lens range) the reason why the 1st image is grainy/sort of blurred and not as sharp as the 2nd image
The 1st image below was shot from Nikon D5100 and Micro Lens (as mentioned/specified earlier)
The 2nd image below was shot from Canon EOS 6D
To achieve the result in the 2nd image, do I need to change the camera or the lens (or both)?
and Secondly I want to learn about the techniques of capturing diamond jewellery. I had no experience in the beginning (3 months ago) when I had to click 10 or so images and each capture took me ~an hour (including little Photoshop-ing)
