Great Book For DIY Lighting: Low Budget Shooting

I placed an order for this fantastic book a few days ago. I rec'd it this morning, and what a wonderful book it is. It's only 63 pages but what it contains is a library's worth of DIY photography "goodies". I've only thumbed through it but what I have read so far is excellent.

Some of the things you will learn to make are:

  • Backgrounds
  • Imaging Table
  • Mini-Seamless Backdrop
  • Outdoor Light Tent
  • Travel Diffuser
  • Softboxs and Striplights
  • Close-up Diffuser
  • Holders for Mirrors and Reflectors
  • Many more projects…..

I've seen a lot of great DIY projects out there for photography but the ones contained in this book at top-notch. Most of what I saw was very inexpensive but yet the projects had a professional feel to them. Once I read through the whole thing and even try a few things contained within - I'll get back and write a better review. You can find the book here:

If you are a fan of Strobist you will love the simple solutions to everyday photography lighting. Pick up a copy - you will not regret it!
