<p>[QUOTE="john41, post: 1991564, member: 56428"]Very nice images for a point and shoot. One issue I have noticed with your new images is the loss of contrast/definition. Diffusing your lights with even a paper towel will help get that light spread out and improve the contrast a bit. Give it a try on that Thaler and let us see the difference. You should not need to do a composite either with the lights diffused. I would recommend having the lights up high and close to the camera, I am not sure what your working distance is though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
