I'm starting a new job this week. It will entail both photography and web development. The photography will entail doing hundreds/thousands of internal engine and transmission components and indexing them for web display and later ecommerce.
Parts will be polished and shiny. I will need to picture each variation of each part, noting where the oiling holes are located, etc. It's a new operation and my task includes choosing the camera & lighting. Here's my thought: 1. Cool lighting -- two fluorescent lights for a soft & even coverage. 2. A camera with built-in HDR. I'm going to do some experimenting with the in-camera HDR tomorrow on a still object with side lighting, just to see what HDR will produce. Of course either a K5 or K7 would be ideal. But I'll have to look @ all makes, just to be fair to the employer. Any input/thoughts on this is appreciated. Tx.
