No-Brainer Essential Investment
By A2V5THUUJ2RUPQ on 2008-08-06
I just got this kit and am VERY impressed by the quality of the product itself and the quality of the images I am able to produce with it! The kit comes packed very nicely and setup is a breeze. They have included everything but the camera in this kit to produce professional quality images. The two cardboard light reflectors seemed cheesy at first, but are actually quite effective. You'll realize the importance of them when you shoot a reflective object that you don't want to see yourself in! :)
The first shoot I did was with my Fuji point-and-shoot camera. I wanted to see how well a true novice would do with this kit. The images looked good, but the background wasn't pure white. I played around with the white balance and shutter speed settings, but wasn't able to produce an image with a pure white background. However, anyone with basic Photoshop skills can easily achieve their desired results (as I did)in a matter of minutes. Even given this "extra" step, I would strongly recommend this kit to anyone who is wanting to shoot their own images for web and other purposes. This kit will pay for itself over and over again!
I will update this review after I get a chance to shoot with my DSLR. I'm sure my experience will be even better...
Finally, great product images with little effort!

I've been selling on Ebay since 1998 and have tried just about every photo tent, light cube, paper background and everything in between to help me take great photos of my products, and I have ALWAYS been disappointed. I was a bit skeptical at first with MyStudio because the price seemed a bit high, but out of desperation I bit the bullet and bought one and I am so glad I did! I can honestly say that my MyStudio is possibly the single most important piece of photo equipment I own. It doesn't seem to matter which camera I use (I have an old Canon Powershot and also a Nikon D50), the photos I get are clean and crisp and really make my items pop.
It really can be used by just about anyone and if you sell anything on Ebay or anywhere else online and take your own photos, you would be insane not to have a MyStudio. I have literally bought things on Ebay that I could tell were good products but had bad photos (as most items on Ebay do). Then when I got the product home I took new photos in the MyStudio and relisted it and got nearly twice as much than what I bought it for. I have done this several times now. This works especially well with collectibles, coins, watches and jewelry where good photos can make a significant difference. Needless to say I have paid for it many times over since I bought it a few months ago.
Final verdict: A GREAT product and a must have for anyone who sells online.
packaging failed

The background piece arrived with scratches and one corner with a huge "ding". It is a fairly good product but I will have to repaint the background to correct the surface damaged in shipping.
Great Product = Great Photos
By A2PB8GGAL5SPP2 on 2008-09-12
This is a great product and a must have if you sell anything on eBay or even craigslist. It came nicely packaged and set up easily. Once I saw my photos, I wondered why I didn't try it sooner. My items came out looking great. I love that it comes with it's own lighting and there's no backdrop to distract. I used to dread the time it would take to get a photo that I was happy with, now it happens in no time and I love the way they turn out. I have a Nikon D-50 but I've also used a simpler point-and-shoot and both have given great photos on this background.
While playing around with the myStudio, I noticed a few things that helped make my photos look their best. First be sure to position the bounce cards to reflect the light back onto your item. Then turn off any extra lighting in the room. It also helps to have your camera on a tripod to keep your camera still. Play around with shooting your item straight on or from above. With taller items, shooting from above helps to fit the entire item on the background. It's really amazing what you can do with this personal sized studio. I'm glad I have it.
Bottom Line: It is easy to use and gives great looking photos. It'll set your items apart.
Great Photo Studio!

I have used this product numerous times to sell items on EBay. It creates a near white background which is easily removed using any photo editing software to create pure white backgrounds.
The setup on this product was simple.
I would highly recommend this for anyone who is serious about selling images on any e-commerce website including Amazon or EBay.
Great item! Keep up the good work!
