[QUOTE="kanga, post: 925817, member: 9270"]A copy stand is definitely superior. It gives you so much more room to work with. I had trouble with a reflection from the upright on the copy stand so I had my wife make a sleeve for it from black corduroy. That took care of that. Make sure your light source is the ONLY one. Windows or other lamps can be interference sources. Shiny surfaces around your setup can cause problems. Sometimes I have the overhead lights on during setup. Then I forget to turn the off before the photo session. I [B]REALLY[/B] hate myself after ruining an hour's work because of something stupid like that.[/QUOTE]
