Photography is not an easy endeavor. It not only takes a lot of labor and hard work but also requires various equipment. Right equipment hugely increases studio efficiency and production.
Overhead Light Tracking System–
Lights are the most important part of any kind of photography. Light stands are more like pain for the users as they keep creating problems in the photography sessions. In such bewilderment, the radical solution is the overhead light tracking system. These systems allow you to terminate the lights from the sliding track system which is installed on the ceiling. The usage of these lights is quite convenient as you can easily move, lower, or raise the lighting and also not have to struggle with the stands. Since there is less clutter, you can enjoy easy access to the table for the positioning of the products and clicking pictures.
Undeniably the cost of these systems is immense and far up from the reach of photographers, especially the neophytes. Also, these systems are not recommended for the photo stations with higher roofs. Yet if you persist pursuing the plan then you must install a grid system where the lights can be changed. It is great in producing efficiency in your work.
A Camera Stand-
Table top photography can be done with two kinds of equipment- Tripod or Camera Stand. Most of the photographers who consider budget greatly prefer buying Tripods as they are much cheaper than the camera stands. But one drawback with the Tripods is that they are least flexible.
Both the equipment have got legs and they cause a lot of trouble while you move photographing the products. Well, if you need a suggestion I would probably go with a camera stand. They are extremely expensive but at the same time, they save your time for adjusting or moving the camera to capture different kinds of shots.
The movement with a camera stand is smooth. It can be moved up and down, horizontally and vertically, any ways that you like. Camera stand can also go high to 9 feet in case you have to capture larger products. Camera stand is an investment. Be sure you make it
Gear Head-
In product photography, it is essential to work on your speed of clicking the pictures. Quick precision is significant and any gear that can lend you better precision must be taken. Thus, the gear head is a must for a professional photographer. All you have to do is to stick the gear head to the camera stand arm, attach a quick release plate to your camera and mount it to the gear head. Later, you can pan and tilt the camera to the needed angles. It will make the precision super fast and easy.
Quality head gears are available at a price of around $300. You will never regret this purchase as it will really help in increasing the efficiency.
