    So do i !!! I actually was going to ask people what they use on here to take pics in... I just made a DIY cardboard box one with the poster board and tissue paper on the sides and top.... It sucks. I guess its just me idk. I think it might just be the fact that I dont have good lights and the ones I had werent positioned well at all. Your pics came out way better then my light tent could have done....

    One problem with it tho...it is collapsable. When you receive it, it comes in a nifty circular form.

So now...I don't know how to fold it up. I have twisted and contorted it a couple times, but I feel I am doing more harm than good.

    Other than that...I am very happy with it. :)

    yes its like one of those coil snakes in a can with a puzzle twist:rofl::rofl:
    i did that in the store and just tossed it on the shelf and took off :rofl:

    I bought one of those light tents from Ebay. With 3 flourescent bulbs, the equivalent of 120 incandescent watts each, they insisted I could take perfect pictures without a flash or additional lighting. I found this near impossible, no matter how large I opened my aperture and bumped up the ISO speed.

    The biggest thing for me was a quality Canon 430 EX II speedlight with a diffuser so it didn't flash directly on the subject. I use this in conjunction with the light tent. This was enhanced by a wireless setup where I can mount the flash remotely, off to the side of the light tent or even on top with a boom. This consistency has been the biggest factor helping the quality of my pics, since now my flash doesn't move everytime my camera does.
