I am very new not only to fotographing but also to handle a Digicamera CANON G1.

As a Graphics Designer I would like to make rather professional fotos of products, most of them cosmetic products like all kind of plastic bottles of shampoos and so on. For a big part I need the fotos for making catalogs where the background of the foto is not needed, but I also would like to begin with product fotos where I have to arrange the background to build a whole scenery.

I am unsure about how to do the correct lighting and with what kind of flash or lamp should I work. Could anyone give me a few tips?
