Need reflections for product shots.

[andy10676]

I am shooting some product and want to get some reflections. What would be the best thing to use for something like this? Right now I have been using an old piece of glass from a frame. Thanks for your help!!

one thing i've done is to make the reflection in PS, but that doesn't work for everything. :)

I bought a couple of pieces of reflective board recently that works really nicely. Just got it yesterday and took a couple of shots this evening but have not had a chance to upload them yet.

old piece of glass from a frame So, you want reflections over the image & not in the product?

If you want them in the product, then look at the knife & Browning threads here:
FAQ - Studio Lighting (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=66140) to see how to put them in something that's shiny.

Nice shots Mauro! I like a lot of your jewlery shots especially. Are you using the 50 f2.5 on a lot of them? I'm guessing wide open as the depth of field is usually very narrow.

yes i am using the 50mm
sometime with aperture 2.5 sometime 13
i shoot the glasses with aperture of 11 or 13 i don't remember
