Set up for 360 photobooth

[Dazzdeadmeadow]

Hi all,

Hope you are all keeping well!!


I'm looking to set up a 360 photobooth on a budget of £3000. I work for a company that takes 360 images of telecoms components to list for sale.

Currently I use a Spinme setup with Photorobot. The kit is only used for a 12 picture 360 spin and the turntable doesn't work anymore anyway (I manually spin the table). My boss doesn't want to spend the money on that setup again for another site, its a bit over engineered for what we need.

Camera wise, I am looking at a Nikon D3500 and a Zomei 72 inch Tripod. I'm then considering the following light tent and turntable...

I'm trying to minimize the amount of work in post as I have a lot of components to get through. I thought the light tent would help with this and be cost effective. I know flash light kits can be damned expensive.

Anyway, will that setup get decent results? Has anybody got any advice or any other recommendations for a better set up??

I have attached as single from on of the spins to show you the sort of result I'm currently getting.

Many thanks guys, and stay safe!!!!

I spent 6 years working with a SpinMe 360 setup doing bicycles and various sized components (full bikes down to pedals, grips, handlebars etc).

SpinMe isn’t cheap but its good at what it does.

With regards to the amount of post processing, it really depends on what standard you’re happy with on the final outcome.

The light tent ( I’ve used something similar ) will probably still leave a shadow but it’s up to you whether the final standard is ok.

We actually ended up using a bar and suspended most items on fishing line. This eliminates the issue of shadows completely and just needs a little post processing in PS to remove any visible fishing line.

It takes a bit of trial end error but we found that gave the best results for quality vs time.

Few free to PM me with any more questions [emoji106]
