More DSLR Pics (sorry, but i'm excited with the new toy)

[AlexCaldecott]

Here are more DSLR pics, but this time, it's my first attempt at using artificial light. I shot these pics under (2) 100w daylight bulbs. Please let me know your comments, tips, or suggestions. Thanks!

Can I ask what camera settings you are using??

Sweet, sweet photos!!

After i took those pictures, i switched to white melamine as a background because i have a large sheet that can support adult size BPs. I'm still figuring it out because i'm not 100% satisfied with the colors, but it's definitely very close. So far these are the optimal settings for my setup:

Canon Rebel XSi
18-55mm lens
ISO 100
Shutter 1/80
Aperture F4.5
Custom white balance
One shot auto focus
Spot metering

Here are a few sample pics. Thanks and good luck with your photo adventure!
