Digital camera reviews of American Recorder SIB-101CS Classic Photo Studio-in-a-Box
Digital camera Review: Very Satisfied
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered the photo studio to take digital pictures of my business's products. Our products are reflective and very difficult to photograph due to the reflective quality glaring and radiating when exposed to a flash. The photos came out excellent. The even soft lighting, and easy to use background really made a big difference!
In addition, I ended up with a great photo of my cat as he crawled inside the light warmed photo box!
I definitely recommend the product.
The only downside was the shipping box Amazon fulfillment used.. they padded the item poorly and the box arrived broken. However, the product was intact despite the packaging.
Digital camera Review: Very good for small pictures
Summary: 4 Stars
This studio is great for product catalog pictures and ebay pictures. It allows good lighting to be displayed through the two lamps. The reason I gave it four stars is the difficulty of getting the legs of the lamps out. I had to take the lights away from the handles and then hit them at an angle to get them to extract. After the first time, you should not need to fully insert the legs back into the handle. This is just a recommendation for future purchasers of this product.Digital camera Review: adaquate for small items
Summary: 3 Stars
..the lights supplied should be of a higher wattage and the legs were impossible to open....I had to resort to pliers. Seam lines were visable unless taped together from the back. I got what I paid for..nothing more.Digital camera Review: eh...
Summary: 4 Stars
Bought this as a gift for my husband to use to photograph his scrollsaw projects. He's pretty happy with it, however, it is really too small for most of the projects he makes.Digital camera Review: fine for short takes
Summary: 4 Stars
Overall, a great deal. I deal in a small way in 18th-19th C. swords, and this setup makes it easy to produce the kind of close-to-professional closeups that mean everything when one sells antiques via eBay. The only weak link is the lights, which are fine at lower shutter speeds but start to overheat at about 15 minutes - though they cool off nicely in another 5. So,if you're not taking hundreds of shots on a busy schedule,this isn't a real problem - if you are, I don't see anything in this price range that will work any better.
