I bought myself a light tent the other day and have been playing around trying to photograph jewellery and other items.

I'm after any advice I can get on how to mount items for shooting. Is it a mater of what works for each item?

Also what's the best way to capture diamonds and cut stones?

I'm severely limited light wise at present and ended up with my two SB-800's as sources. I'm still awaiting some other gear to arrive.




No blutac so I mounted the ring in a black box.
What's the best angle to use?
