Noted thanks.

I will.. As for tripod..I was shooting a rubber dog toy, fog lead and this collar... so in this particular shoot all of those products needed different shooting angles... But yes agreed..

You don't think it'd need looking at my image? This is for Amazon, and will be up for a long time, years hopefully.

Not got £3000 spare :)

yes the label is badly edited out, it was never meant to be nice.. It took me 2 seconds... was just to upload it here.

That 'white label' is white brush in photoshop! To mask the brand out. also it is the RAW image, nothing in C1 or PS yet.

Unfortunately I am limited to one flash, so I have been bouncing it off of a white wall to try spread the light as evenly as possible. What would you suggest?

I will try f16 first as it would be the least amount of work... Manual focus too?

What I will do is one of these or all... Strand further back and crop in Use a tripod and try focus bracketing / blending Use manual focus Try higher fNumber at maybe 11 or 16

yes for web sales.. hmm... moving back is an option yes.

Yes as it's a lead, mine is a collar and needs shooting from the angle I have, their collars are the same angle as mine and focussed front to back

damn - long winded but guess there's no other way! I have not used affinity beofre, easy in photoshop?? Just using masks?

Hi. I blanked their logo plus this is a stock product that many brands use, they just added their logo (which is blocked out). So taking 2 or 3 images and just adjusting the focus (front, middle, back) and then blending in affinity (or Photoshop)?

I know this.. But from f9 to f22 would not mean suddenly everything in focus - I am lef to believe at a certain point going even higher would have more destructive effects on the image

I was looking at a competitor image, and it's focussed from front to back...?
