[QUOTE="Wulf Ratbane, post: 497999, member: 94"] Just thought I would pop in again real quick with some photography tips I have learned from my [URL=http://www.batreps.com]40k batreps[/URL]. Don't use Zoom or your Flash. Make sure you have plenty of light (preferably natural) and get the lens as close to your miniatures as you can-- by which I mean, as close as possible while still framing everything in one shot. There is rarely any good reason to back off from your shot. If you need more light, stand a piece of white cardboard nearby to reflect a little more brightness towards your minis. You could make a simple board with an A-frame "kickstand" for this purpose. If I was really going to go all out, I would actually make the frame so that the board actually leans in over the figures at a slight angle, but of course you'd have to counterweight the far outside of your kickstand. Just doing my part to improve a good story hour schtick! Course what you really need are some nice, flat counters. ;) Wulf [/QUOTE]
