Unboxing | Timbrecod 5.5in 4K LCD Field Monitor | Amazon


Camera Field Monitor,5.5″ 4K Input with 3500mAh Rechargeable Li-ion Battery 1920×1080 HDMI Screen Camera Field Monitor for DSLR Camera/Camcorder

Many photographers have a hard time looking at the small LCD screen on their cameras. For years I have used an external screen for films, but having this luxury came with a few issues. The biggest problem for me, is the large battery that most of these monitors come with. Some of them use the canon LP-E6 battery, which is small but is still too much weight on my camera.

I finally decided to give myself a gift and I did a search on Amazon for “USB powered field Monitors”. I found dozens of LCD screens, but most of them were too large or way too expensive. After scrolling through so many I found this monitor. It fit all off the requirements I desired and I purchased it immediately. I will put the link and specs below for people who are interested.

DIY product photography – overhead view

1. Get some cheap wood and make a rectangle out of 4 pieces. Tall enough for your camera to hover above the table.

2. Get yourself an adjustable tripod head. Like this one.

3. Get some screws and screw this to the top of the wood. Like this…

4. Get an external monitor and place it next to you to view what the camera is capturing.

5. Buy a nice clothe or anything to make the table look presentable.

6. Use a wide angle lens for large products and a 50mm lens for smaller objects.

7. Make sure you have lights and a reflector and you are done.

This is a lot cheaper than buying this.

Product photography: DIY setup


AF31AD97-B1F6-47F1-B5FB-32CBC11D09D7I often wondered how people create the photos for all of these product reviews online and on YouTube. I saw a few kits on amazon that looked cool, but I’m sick of always having to spend a bunch of money to do small things that I can create myself. Here is what I did.

This is my cheap DIY product photography setup

1. Buy 2 large black and white pieces of cardboard paper from the local dollar store.
2. Also Get some cheap clamps or clothes pins while you’re in the store.
3. Get some string and scotch tape
4. Aluminum foil (to reflect the light)
5. Use any small lamp or lighting you have in the house.
6. Use a TV table or plastic folding table

Put them all together and this is all you need to get yourself started. Here are some of the photos I took with my DIY setup.
