So I finally got my light tent built and set up on the weekend and took a few test shots. For lack of other suitable subjects, I decided to use a bottle of one of my favourite types of beer, Sleeman Fine Porter. (Very tasty. If you like dark beers, I highly recommend sampling it.)
Overall, the tent worked, but not to my satisfaction. The lighting was too dark and a little too spotty, but by shooting in raw mode I was able to adjust the white balance fairly easily. I also had a little fun with the background colour... I'm not sure, but I think I like the blue better.
So, now I have to experiment with alternative lighting. I have a few ideas, I'll try them out and see what comes out of it.
