BMS glass photo frame

[Mattie]

Hi

I don't suppose anyone has got an image of the glass photo frames from BMS i could use on my site etc http://www.printerowners.co.uk/sublimat ... -frame.htm

For the life of me i can't get a good enough photo of it with it basically having a mirror finish, also the fact i'm rubbish at photography. (really need to find a photographer).

[Paul]

give me that job then
If you want i can photograph it for you.

might have to Paul, i can't seem to get good enough photo of it i just keep getting reflections in it haha

[Paul]

there is few tricks... do you use flash with it? if so is it one that pop out straight from the camera?? trick is to direct light from other direction then your camera.

I've got one of those photo studio kits off ebay, where it folds out in to a photo box with 4 different backdrops and two lights on stands.
I use just a normal digital camera i had at home, i've tried with flash, without flash both lights on and flash etc.

I just always seem to get a reflection in the glass or shadow

Switch flash off. Go to manual mode. Set your apeture.for the lowest number you can. Ie.2.8
Shutter speed for 100.
If still to dark rise iso up. Best thing to do is take your tent out so you hav natural light.
