I am working on some photos for my new website today. I am trying to finish this today so I can send a disk to the web guy. I have about 30 items that I need individual photos of. Most of them are just very small fishing lures. Jigheads, weights, etc

I have a Cannon Rebel T3. I have the standard 18-55 lens

I tried auto and the pictures sucked. I am in manual mode and I have adjusted the aperture and understand how to set that with my light set up. What about other settings? ISO?

Do I need to mess with any of the other settings?


Here is my set up. No laughing. Im just getting started.







TIA

Doesn't look like there's a lot of light. Could be why your pics sucked.

Honestly, you may have been better going with a more natural light set up. Looks like it could be shadowy with your current set up.

Go with a low ISO if you have the subject area well lighted. Since they will be still shots as opposed to movement, you want a low ISO to reduce the grain.
