Using a Tabletop Shooting Enclosure: The First Studio LiteIgloo / Electric violin

The idea of a shooting enclosure is not a new one; it’s been around a while. In the past their cost, assembly, and size have not made them popular with the entry level or amateur photographers. In 2004, Photoflex introduced the LiteRoom, a professional's shooting enclosure for product photography, as well as the Starlite Large LiteRoom Kit 2, with great results. However, many entry level and hobbyist photographers were asking for a more affordable solution for their product shooting needs.

For those of you that shoot product, or want to, the LiteIgloo is a great place to start. The same technology that goes into the frames of our LiteDisc reflectors is in the LiteIgloo, making it both collapsible and very durable. In fact the small LiteIgloo can fit in your pocket when it’s collapsed and the large one (large enough for shooting an average sized tower computer) can be easily stowed away in your camera case.


In this introductory lesson, we will focus on using the Medium LiteIgloo. We also will show examples of product or subjects we shot in the other two sizes. The medium LiteIgloo is also available in the First Studio Product Kit with two of our new FirstStar reflector lights and LiteStands.
