		| | hello everybody! I have bought a light tent and I was wondering if any of you can help me with some ideas for the light. what light do I need in order to process good pictures.
 Can you show me some pictures with the light source that I need.
 Thank you very much!

		| | Any lighting would do. Heck as I posted before when you asked this question, I use desk lamps and my halogen work light. The thing to remember though is using the proper white balance. That is key. You can have a great set of lighting equipment but if your WB is set incorrectly, kaputs ;) |

 I have bought a 80cm light tent. Do you think it's ok for small items?
 I have a halogen light/lamp and the color it's not so white,more yellow...strange...

		| | I like to put mine infront of my sliding glass door and use natural light, works good.

		| | They work nicely outside in full sun too.

		| | Probably the sun light it's the best, I must try all the combinations to see which one has the best result. The light in my house it's not so powerful.

		| | What is this "Sun" thing you're referring to?  It's outside?  The falling snow flakes must be hiding it. |

 It's that bright thing you saw when you were above the clouds flying.  Oh wait, you were sleeping, weren't you :P

 What does that "Y" mean after the eight?  Never seen that used for temperatures.

 That's the same air that encourages cockroaches to grow so big you can't get the whole bug with a macro lens? :-)
