Table for Still Life

[Ruffmeister]

Hi All

I have been looking around a for a table to do some still life work. Floral etc.

Can anyone recommend anything? I have seen a few on eBay circa £50-60 like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Easy-Set-...627?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item27de5dbc9b

However Im never certain whether these are up for the job or any good. Would be good to work with a black backdrop as well as a white one in some scenarios depending on the look I want. Will mostly be working in black and white.

Be good to hear some ideas or any other recommendations on tables.

Thanks

Dan

We sell the same thing for £10 less. And, for the sake of completeness, you can get it from this competitor too, if you don't mind spending more
It's a very good product but it does have its limitations, it's too low to stand on the floor and really too high if you put it on a table. And, you will find that you need far more width than you'd expect.

In theory, shooting tables can be used with black backdrops but in reality there isn't enough distance separation..

Well look at that Thanks Garry, appreciate your input. Something like this would be ideal as a beginning ground for what I want to do.

Excellent. I may have to order one of these from you. If anyone has any other suggestions then that would be greatly appreciated although I imagine this is one of the better products around for the cost and it doesn't have those horrible clips which run down the side which I see on some of the eBay ones.
