I have a Canon Rebel xti 400D digital camera and need to know what other equipment I would need (see below)?
To be able to use it as a studio camera. I have bounce flash, synch cord and such, just not sure what else I need to have my pictures come out with a "professional look"
Yes I am new at photography, and there is so much out there I am not sure how to proceed. Is there a "basic" list to work with when you have the Canon.
Thanks in Advance for your help!
Let me rephrase this, I recieved this camera as a gift and am trying to set up a studio to "learn" how to use it properly. I was needing a basic list so that I could practice and learn what each piece of equipement contributes to the scene, but I don't want to buy a bunch of stuff that isn't needed.
I'd suggest some lighting equipment ( http://alienbees.com ), and backdrops, reflectors, soft box, light tent, posing stool (stool which swivels).
Also a remote release, tripod, extra batteries, the Canon EF 50mm 1.8 lens is a good poitrait lens and is good for commercial product shots. Or if the budge allows, the Canon EF 65mm f2.8 or the 100mm f2.8 macro (also is great for poitraits).
Mostly you'll need a big bank account.
