*Stunning Unique Features*

The EZcube® has long been the market leader in light tents by introducing new features such as the zip front panel and the zip top opening and now the new 2007 EZcube® includes the advanced new built-in EZrigging support feature, a totally unique feature not found on any other product. Full details of this exciting new development are shown below. 

EZcube® is the only light tent that has continued to evolve and it is now light years ahead of anything else on the market.  If you want to produce fabulous product images with the minimum of expense and effort and to be able to display and photograph your products in unique ways never before imagined, then look no further.

Professional Two Large Lights Set

With Pure White 5000K Perfect UK Daylight TrumpetTop Bulbs

The Large Light Stand has an easy height adjustment from 2' to 6' and the fully rotating head - a specialist ball socket providing 360 degree rotation - allows you to position the lights wherever you need for the best results.  It has an easy locking mechanism to hold the light at the desired height

Our own 30W (equivalent to 150W) 5000K Perfect Daylight Compact Fluorescent TrumpetTop Bulbs provide a wonderful pure white light for excellent colour balance, last for ages (10,000 hours), do not get hot and are economic and environmentally friendly

All our lights are fitted with UK Plugs.

Unique to TableTop Studio - our TrumpetTop Bulbs are far superior to spiral or helix bulbs offered with some lights as the conical shape is designed to uniquely optimise the light diffusion for maximum results

The bulbs and reflectors are the same ones as supplied with our EZcube® Kits, giving the same great quantity and spread of light pure white light

The bulbs are the same light colour used in SAD boxes so if you are having a down day in the winter they can also be used in your office or home to brighten your mood!  The light is a lovely restful colour of light to work under

The Lights fold away neatly for EZstorage

FREE DVD "How To Get the Most From Your EZcube"

The new 2007 EZcube® includes the advanced new built-in EZrigging support feature, a totally unique feature not found on any other product.  Used with the additional EZrigging Kit (available separately) this allows small items to be suspended or supported in numerous innovative new ways.   Small items that are difficult to support by themselves can now be suspended using the EZrigging System, making it possible to produce shadowless and natural-looking images in a way not previously possible. 

As always, EZcube® is staying miles ahead of all other light tents by introducing these unique advanced features.

Below is an example of what is possible with the new 2007 EZcube® and the new EZrigging System

A sun catcher is suspended inside a 20" 2007 EZcube® using the new EZrigging support system and the EZrigging Accessory Kit.  The new built-in EZrigging supports the additional support rod from which the sun catcher is suspended using "invisible thread" (a very fine translucent strand).  One EZclip is used to hold the thread tightly.  The EZclip is able to rotate through 360 degrees allowing the sun catcher to be rotated into any position or angle.  The background is then easily removed using photo editing software such as Photoshop or Photoshop Elements.

This is just one of the new features.  For more examples and to find out more about the EZcube, our Specialist Photography Kits and our unique Customer Service and Technical Support, please see More Info

Important Note

The new 2007 EZcube® includes the built in fabric strips with white grommets for holding the support rods in place.  To use the EZrigging System in full you do need to purchase the new EZrigging Kit which is available separately.  This auction is for the 30" 2007 EZcube® and Professional Two Lights ONLY and does not include the EZrigging Accessories Kit.


 

New 2007 Features

Zipped Front Panel

Two way zip provides total flexibility for camera positioning for photographing reflective items, prevents undiffused light from entering through the front.

Zipped Top Panel

Easy top access to position item without disturbing the camera, tripod and lighting and also allows the EZcube® to be used upside down over fixed objects.

What Difference can an EZcube® Make? Without EZcube® and Lights With EZcube®, Lights and Illuminated Flat Panel

Why You Really Need Proper Lighting

The key to the ideal lighting for product photography is diffusion.  Harsh lighting can cause shadows, glare, reflections and hotspots.  The EZcube® is the ideal way to diffuse the light.  Although it is possible to illuminate the EZcube® using sunlight the availability of sunlight tends to be unreliable so a professional lighting solution is required.  A good balance of lighting is achieved by illuminating the EZcube® from two opposing sides, although please note that no single light position will work for every item or every situation. 

We recommend using Perfect Daylight Compact Fluorescent Lighting as they use very little power for the light they produce making them eco-friendly, they stay cool and so are safe to touch - they do not heat up the lamp holders, EZcube® or the products being photographed (especially important for some products) - and they have a long lifespan.

Why You Need the Correct Colour of Light

The colour of light (known as the Colour Temperature) is measured in units of Kelvin (K).  The range of the Kelvin (K) scale for visible light is 1500 to 9000. The lower the number the warmer or more yellow the colour and the higher the number the cooler or more white and blue there is in the colour. The human eye is not able to see all of the colour in the range of colour temperature.  The ideal colour temperature of light for product photography is 5000K - a pure white that mimics perfect natural daylight at midday.  This provides the best colour balance without the need for filters or software editing.  This is particularly important if you want accurate colour representation (so that your images to look the same colour as the item) - if you are selling products on the basis of web images you must have accurate colour that truly reflect the colour of the item. 

Many photographic lights on offer are only 3200k or similar or may be as high as 6400k.  Lights of a colour temperature less than 5000k will tend to introduce an orange or yellow hue to your images that is very hard to remove.  Lights of a colour temperature above 5500k will tend towards a blue/white light and this can also adversely affect the colour balance. 

Natural Light in the UK is 5000k for the majority of the year.  If you are working in a room with a window, the light from your window will likely be 5000k.  Unless you have black out blinds, you need to be sure that your photographic lighting is 5000k or else you will be mixing light colours which can also adversely affect the colour balance.
