Steve's Photo Shop - Tabletop Studios

Hi. I researched quiet a bit on one of these product photo light tents and in Denmark where I live I only have the lastolite Cube option. This was way more than I'm willing to pay, so i looked abroad. Then i found EZ-Cube but they are also pricy.

Suddenly i found this link:
http://www.stevesphoto​shop.co.uk/light_tent_​cube_80cm.html

Very reasonable prices - so. My question. Anyone know this product? Coments are very welcome.

Finally. To those who suggest to go the DIY way i already did build a cardboard box which worked fine. Only problem is that I live with my girlfriend in a 55m2 flat, and my gear is already taking up enough space. The product that i linked will be able to fold down to 30cm and "inflated" it measures 80x80x80cm.

Hope you'll be able to help!

Thanks for the link, but as I wrote I already made a lighttent myself and I want something that packs away without too much hassle.

looks like a good deal for your situation. you could always do a pvc pipe one, and taek it apart each time. I think it's worth it to pay for convenience.

I ordered the one at Steves. Now I'll see what it's like. I think the PVC pipe one will get on my nerves in the end, so that's not an option. The one at Steves look like an EZcube and the one that Lastolite makes, and it packs tight. I think it's the right choise. Stay tuned for my initial experience using it.

waiting your feedback on it.

hope it works for you. The one I made with PVC folds flat and sleeps under the bed.

The commercial model has a completely open front end. If photographing glossy items, you might see the camera and tripod reflected in the surface. The "windows" in my tent control that problem nicely. When you get the commercial tent, try it out with some glass or pottery and see about reflections.

Including in the price theres a front which can be attached with velcro and four backgrounds (white, red, blue, black).

Stay tuned. I'll unwrap the thingummy (found that word in the dictionary), and post some photos later.
