The Phabulous Photo Table

This (apparently) simple, but surprisingly ingenious Photo Table is one of the most amazingly helpful pieces of photographic equipment ever invented for the photographer who ever has a need to photograph small to medium size items or objects!

This innovative piece of equipment allows us to make some amazingly creative and visually arresting photographs of ordinary items. First, it lets us set up and start working quickly and easily. Next, it's almost infinitely adjustable, so we can change it whenever we want. And, it holds all sorts of backgrounds; muslins, canvas, paper rolls as well as any Diffuser Acrylic Background (a sort of a translucent, white plastic material you use for the background of the objects you're photographing, and which can be made to appear almost any color or shade you like, simply by lighting it from the rear with a light with a color filter over it. This technique also adds a background "glow" that looks fabulous! The background seems to glow with whatever shade you like, and is a real eye-catcher for your client's products (but don't go out and tell everybody - like magicians, photographers do the "magic" and leave our audience gasping with delight - but we never reveal the "secrets" of our art (let them think we learn our secret techniques from ancient spiritual geniuses who handed down these practices from master to disciple over the centuries - it increases our value:). The "glow" technique is especially wonderful when photographing glass or plastic objects, by lighting from below - see the "technique" section below, and amaze even yourself). BTW, although the carrying case for this unit is usually an optional extra that sells for $40, I'll throw in the custom carrying case with this for FREE! The photographic tips and techniques are also free - whether you buy anything from me or not. So ask yourself: "Who da man?" ;-)

Basically, this is a product photographer's dream;
you can do a whole catalogue's worth of items in a single day, and also make the background or product's "surroundings" look either completely consistent, or amazingly different just by changing paper rolls, or using the fabulous ChromaKey backgrounds, or lighting white paper differently, or using color gels over your background light(s). As you can see, this is sort of a combination product table and background stand, so by curving the background, you eliminate the horizon, just as you can with a backdrop stand setup. All in all, a wonderfully helpful system for both efficiency and (more importantly) creativity! Yet another "secret" why the pros can do such great work: they have the right tools for the job! AND, they can CONTROL THE LIGHT! Try it, you'll like it. ESPECIALLY at this great price! Please be aware that this setup is the photo table FRAME, as illustrated; it does not include the paper rolls or background material (which are available in my eBay store, or at almost any photo store, hobby store, art store. or photographic supplier), and there is no shelf included (if it was a chair, the "seat" would not be included). I had a piece of plywood cut to size, to use as the shelf. I also drilled a hole in the center of the plywood shelf, which I use to shine a light through from the bottom up for "glowing" glass and translucent objects. See the "technique" section below for more on this subject.

Are you an online seller? Do you have eBay auctions? If so, you already know that the better your products look, the more you'll sell! You have already learned (or surmised) the most important aspect of a successful online enterprise; to wit: a good image will sell more product than a poor image will. A GREAT image (or, better yet, MANY great images) will sell MANY more products, than poor images will, etc. That's the first big hump (so to speak) to get over, and you already have. Good! You know you need to make your products look great in order to succeed. If you sell products, this Photo Table, a few lights, and a little time and effort learning how to use them will allow you to make your products look FABULOUS! The same is true if you're a product photographer; you have to make your clients' products look great - that's what they pay you for. And the better your work, the more you can charge. This Photo Table will help you succeed. For about what you'd spend on a dinner in a nice restaurant and a movie, you can own one of these dynamite Photo Tables. It will make your life easier, allow you to make many more great images per day (the more pictures you can make per day, the more money you'll make per day). The better your clients' products look in your images, the more your client will sell; the more money your client makes, the more assignments he'll give you. The more assignments you're hired to do, the more money you'll make.Think about it.
Web Surfing Tips: Is the type on any web page too small for comfortable reading? Just hold down the Control key and type in the + sign (or in Macs, Command +), and all the type gets bigger and easier to read - just keep punching the + key until the type is at a comfortable size for you (to go back to the smaller size, just type Control or Command and - the minus sign). Want to keep the web page you're on open when you click on a link to see another web page? Just hold down the Control (or Command) key when you click on a link, and a new browser page or tab will open up, keeping the original page open behind it.
Technique: Here's another great suggestion regarding photographing glassware (or any transparent, semi-transparent, or translucent objects - when using a Photo Table): Yes, glass and similar substances are difficult subjects to properly photograph (especially clear glass objects), but it can be done with a little equipment - like this Photo Table (and a little creativity). A GREAT technique to use to make any glass or translucent objects look truly magnificent and visually striking, with the photo table, is to place your glass object right over the hole (drilled through the shelf) or use a piece of transparent or translucent plastic or plexiglas for the shelf, and light it from below! The light shining up through the hole (or the plexiglas) into your object will make the glass object "glow" beautifully (here, though, you might want to consider using a black background, and let it underexpose to pure, pitch black; the "glowing" glass object will appear to "float" in space, and can look pretty damn fantastic (when done properly)! If you add a color filter (just a piece of colored cellophane or plastic) over the light shining up from the bottom of this setup, you can give it (your glass or plastic object) lovely colorful highlights that will just amaze the viewers! Using 2 or 3 different colors can add some really dramatic highlights! Of course, with the Photo Table, you can even do this with "regular" hot lights to get an idea of what amazing effects can be accomplished. If you can't afford to buy a Photo Table, take an old chair, punch out the seat, and use it for your "poor photographer's" photo table. "What? Is this guy crazy or something?," you're probably asking yourself. "Why is he telling us this? Shouldn't he be trying to sell us stuff instead?" Hey, sure I'm in business to sell photographic equipment and make a living, but I'm also a person (perhaps just like you), who enjoys photography and who would rather see you make great pictures, than to try to squeeze the baby's food money out of you. If you can afford to buy a Photo Table, great! Place your order right now! But if money's tight, make a "poor photographer's photo table," with an old chair, and then blow your client's minds with some phenomenal photographs! Then you'll make a ton of money photographing products, and you'll come back and buy the real photo table from me, since the professional photo table is, of course, larger, much more versatile, infinitely adjustable (which an old chair isn't), professional, easy and convenient to break down, and fit into its custom carrying case when you need to take it on location and make the pictures at your client's warehouse - or stash it in the corner of a closet when the spouse want's the living room back - I have no doubt you'll toss out that flea-bitten, ugly and embarrassing old chair just as soon as you can afford the real thing:). After all, you're not going to make a great impression on your clients by dragging an ugly old chair around with you, will you? :) Thanks for viewing this auction, best of luck, and check out my other auctions for lotsa great photographic equipment! And remember, half the battle is having the right equipment for the job. And for barely more than a hundred and fifty bucks, this photo table just might be the best photographic purchase you'll ever make!
Quickie Technique #4: Exposure - All meters built into all cameras are "reflection" meters; they read the light reflected by our subjects AND everything else in our viewfinder! This often causes incorrect readings, and pictures that turn out looking like doo-doo. Instead of letting our camera's meter read the exposure from our whole frame, either zoom in to fill the viewfinder with our subject (i.e., the face of our subject, or the flower's petals, or the black cat's coat, etc.), or, if you're not using a zoom lens, walk up close to our subject, fill the viewfinder with the most important part of our subject, then, when our viewfinder is filled with our subject and NOT with the surroundings, lock in exposure (e.g., press the shutter button half-way down), and zoom out or back up, re-compose the shot, and then press the shutter button all the way down and make the exposure! I think you'll be amazed with the results! More "quickie techniques" information will be included in my other auction descriptions. Thank you for viewing this auction, and may you have the very best of luck! Tell me more about getting perfect exposure...

Blue ChromaKey Backdrop 6' x 10'
(optionally, you can request a ChromaKey green backdrop instead; see below)

Back to top of page -------------- Back to Contents List

What is a "ChromaKey Background?" A chromakey backdrop is a solid-color backdrop of a special color tone that makes it easy to select just the background or just the subject of your image in order to isolate your subject and make the background "disappear." Why do we want to do that? Because in today's age of computers and digital photography and/or digital videography and movie making, we often want to make it look like our subject is in a place or location other than they really are. Other times, we may want a deep, solid black background or a pure, totally white background (without having to arrange special lighting set ups and determine and use arcane camera settings to achieve this optically). This technique is equally useful for both portraiture and product photography.

Just imagine the possibilities! A client's child, holding a basketball and standing on the court next to Shaq! Or maybe a girl in a bikini on a beautiful beach in Hawaii at the golden moment of sunset. Or a diamond ring "floating" in the air in front of the Milky Way, or an automobile on top of a fabulous mesa in America's most beautiful National Parks. Or an infant asleep in her father's hands with a solid black background showing only the hands and the baby magically suspended in a magnificent image. With these fabulous backdrops, AND a great background support set, the only limit to what you can accomplish is your own imagination. All this for less than a dinner would cost you at a nice restaurant.

When you go to the movies and see Spiderman or CatWoman (or, for the more mature among us, Superman or Batman:), soaring over Metropolis or Gotham City, and bouncing from skyscraper to skyscraper, in reality, they are NOT "flying" above the city, but the SuperHero is attached to wires (of the same blue color as the chromakey blue background), soaring in front of a "blue screen" ChromaKey Background in a studio's sound stage! Then, the digital artists delete the Blue (or green) chromakey backgrounds and the wires holding the actors (on their computers), and then dropping in image of a cityscape (or black, white, or any other conceivable background image or color)! All the major studios use this technique (as well as using special cameras that are "blind" to certain colors), and there's no reason why we can't do so as well!

And that's exactly why today's photographers, videographers, and moviemakers use these ChromaKey backgrounds every day! ChromaKeys come in two colors: Blue (hence the movies calling it a "blue screen"), and green; each of which are a tone of color that is very rare in nature, and that makes it easy to select and differentiate from whatever your subject might be. Why do we have blue AND a green ChromaKey backdrops? Just to make life easier for us hard-working photographers; if our victims (er, um, our "subjects" that is) are people, as in portraiture or movie making, for example, then just like the major movie studios, we will want to use the chromakey blue backdrops ("blue screens") because there are no skin tones inherent in the blue chromakey backgrounds; so if your shots will contain people, the blue chromakey background may well be your best choice (human skin tones contain reds, yellows, and greens, which is why the green chromakey may not be optimal for people pictures - but we can use the green chromakey if we like - it won't make that big of a difference for most of us). For certain other subjects, though, the green ChromaKey might work better for us. But either way, the tone of the blue and green chromakeys are designed NOT to replicate a natural subject of a similar color. But just in case, we have both color ChromaKeys available for you. Check out my other auctions for a set of one blue and one green ChromaKey backdrop if your needs so dictate. Generally, though, we'll tend to do better with a blue chromakey background for shots and videos containing humans (or stuff with lots of greens in the shot). But, as always when dealing with PhotoSource3, the choice is all yours! If you prefer a Green ChromaKey, that will be fine with me; after all, you're the customer, and as we all know - the customer is always right! Just see below for the instructions.


Back to top of page -------------- Back to Contents List
Important: Please be aware that THIS ChromaKey Background is true heavy-duty, top-quality photographic muslin - NOT the thin, flimsy non-muslin (but often called "muslin" anyway) cotton blend - and even worse - polyester blend backgrounds being passed off on unsuspecting buyers by others online nowadays. Be especially careful to avoid the silk, rayon, or cotton/rayon/polyester blend "chromakey" backdrops! They're not only too light and flimsy to be of value to photographers and videographers, but they often have a "shiny" finish that results in "hot spots" and unwanted reflections which ruins our images! If you really must have one of these types of backdrops, just go to a local fabric store and buy them for half of what the less-than-honorable sellers are asking for them. But don't say I didn't warn you! While there are always exceptions to every rule, most of the time in life we tend to get what we pay for. But it's your money, and your decision, of course. Thank you for visiting this auction, and remember - always keep a camera handy!

Back to top of page -------------- Back to Contents List

NOTE: As with all material products, these muslins may vary in size by up to 10%. In cold weather, they tend to shrink a little bit, and in warm weather expand a tad. Also, when left hanging for a while, they may stretch out just a little; this will not affect the color nor will it cause any problems for you. Most sellers never mention this, but I like to make sure that my (cherished:) customers are fully informed. Thanks for understanding.


Questions? Comments? PhotoSource3@pss3.com

THIS package comes with one 6' x 10' Blue ChromaKey Backdrop
(optionally, you can request a ChromaKey green backdrop instead)

How to order a Green ChromaKey Backdrop instead of a blue one: When you send in your payment, just add a brief note (in the "Note" field in PayPal, or on the order form if you mail in your payment) stating you want a green chromakey instead of the blue one. The price will remain the same, there's no additional charges to substitute one color chromakey for another color chromakey of the same size. You da boss.




Cell Phone Antenna Extender - FREE!

"PhotoSource3" on eBay

Ever have your cellular phone fail to find a signal when you really needed it? Those of us who have cell phones, have them because we never know when we'll find ourselves in a situation where it will save our butts (or those of our spouses, kids, or friends) from some emergency.

Other times, when we're on our cell phone with an important call, we discover that we've just "dropped" the call during the most important part of our conversations. It's happened to all of us, and I really hated it when it happened to me!

We've all seen the ads on TV and in the magazines and newspapers for these Cell Phone Antenna Boosters, and hundreds of thousands have been sold for $19.95 each! And, yes, they DO help (I've tried them on my own cell phones). They're easy to install (just peel and stick them behind the battery). To be perfectly honest (and I always am:), they're not as "Wonderful" as the TV ads make them out to be (what is?:), but they really do help pull in the cell signals when you're in a "fringe" area or inside buildings. I certainly don't think they're worth $20, but in an emergency, these little antenna boosters could make the difference for you. And one thing's for sure: you can't beat the price! It's FREE!

I just happened to come upon a fabulous deal for these cellular phone antenna boosters, and I feel that it's something we should all have - after all, when an emergency happens to us, we'll NEED to have a connection that will work (but no guarantees:)!

Sure, I could have sold these for five, ten, or maybe even fifteen dollars each (as others are doing) and I could have made a great profit on them - but I'm NOT the average eBay seller (you might care to review my business philosophy, here), and I feel that if you're kind enough to purchase this great professional lighting equipment from me, the least I could do would be to give you one of these as a FREE gift! So I'm including one of these Cellular Antenna Boosters with EVERY order. For FREE! Just my way of saying: "Thank you for your patronage!" So "Who da man?" Huh? Who da man? ;-)
Back to top of page

Each and every order (placed from this eBay auction listing) will include one FREE Cellular Phone Antenna Booster. Please understand that you will receive one free antenna booster with your order (regardless of how many kits or items you may order from a dutch auction). Unlike with other sellers, this is not a gimmick - there's no "catch," there are no additional costs to you, there are no additional "shipping" or "handling" charges tacked on - this is really and truly a FREE bonus! Wondering if my products are really as good as they sound? Just check my feedback for assurance, and see for yourself!

Remember, folks, there's virtually nothing for sale nowadays that someone couldn't make a little cheaper, using lower quality materials, less reliable components, poorer manufacturing processes, and unskilled workers. Those of us who make our purchasing decisions based solely upon price are this unscrupulous person's legitimate prey. For goodness sakes, don't pay a cent more than you have to for a product - but in my (sad) experience whenever a deal seems "too good to be true," it usually turns out not to be true. Please check my feedback - and then make your purchasing decisions; after all, it's your money, and you have to decide upon what to purchase, and from whom to purchase it. I've done my very best to provide you with the best quality equipment available, for the absolutely lowest price that can be found. And take a moment to compare with any other seller or source all the help and information I provide to my customers - for free. I'm not some huge corporation out to squeeze every last cent out of my customers - I'm just a regular person (like you, perhaps) doing his best to be fair and honest and provide my fellow photo/video/graphers with the tools they need in order to be successful. If you're interested, here's my business philosophy. Thank you for being kind enough to visit this auction, and may the Photographic Gods smile upon you (um, a little help from the Lottery Gods wouldn't hurt either, huh?).

So - you've gone out and spent God knows how many hundreds (or thousands) of dollars on your shiny, new digital camera(s) and/or camcorder(s), and excitedly ran around the house (and/or the neighborhood) snapping or video-ing everything you saw. Wow! Digital is GREAT, isn't it! Yup, it sure is! BUT... What did you discover?
But... what did you discover? Your images and videos, "magically" copied to your memory cards, sticks, disks, or tapes, ended up looking a lot like they did with your old cameras. Well, at least you're not wasting a lot of film (although you do go through batteries like never before). So why aren't your new digital images amazing and fantastic? Because you forgot the primary rule of photography: "Photographers are LIGHT writers!" The word "Photographer" itself (from Greek) means "LightWriter" or "one who writes with LIGHT." Film, digital, video, or movies - it doesn't matter - they are ALL based upon LIGHT! So how can you make your digital camera images, camcorders, and videos virtually "sing" with the "dynamic beauty" the camera seller promised you as they swiped your credit card through the little machine? Easy. Get a decent light (or set of lights). Only THEN will your images "pop" out with the professional glory we all dream of. And NOW you can have that light for less than (or, depending upon the lighting kit you choose, barely more than) the tax you paid on your digital camera or camcorder! Will the brand new, fully guaranteed lights I'm selling - for such low prices - really make such an amazing difference for you? Don't take MY word for it - just check my feedback and see what over two thousand other eBay customers have to say about it (not to mention several thousand additional happy non-eBay customers). Darn it - ain't I great? Huh? ;o)
Looking for something else in professional photographic / video lighting equipment at unbelievable prices? Remember, a photographer is a "Light Writer" and for professional images, you'll need studio lighting equipment! Just check out some of these great pro studio equipment deals. How can I sell brand new, quality, photographic equipment for such low prices? See THIS for the answer.

IMPORTANT: I know, I know - we all hate the "spam" that fills our In boxes, and we need spam blockers (also known as "junk mail" filters) to filter out at least SOME of these annoying messages - BUT - these spam blockers often block important messages as well as spam emails. So to assure that you will receive messages about your orders, if you place a bid on ANY of my auctions, or ask me a question via e-mail, PLEASE add my e-mail address to your phone book (or un-block my e-mail address some other way) RIGHT NOW: PhotoSource3@pss3.com - so my messages will reach you. This is especially important for folks who use AOL! What kinds of messages will I need to send you? E-mails that let you know you won an auction; e-mails to inform you your payment(s) were received; e-mails to tell you when your order will ship; e-mails that provide you with tracking numbers for your orders, and similar types of important messages. Lately, many of my (wonderful and cherished) customers have been sending me increasingly worried (and sometimes even somewhat angry) messages asking why I have not responded to their inquiries and questions (like: "Did you receive my payment?" and "did you ship my order?" and "Why won't you answer my e-mails?").

I ASSURE you, my most precious photographic friends - I ALWAYS keep my customers informed, and I reply to ALL my customers' messages. But unless you add my e-mail address - PhotoSource3@pss3.com - to your address book or UN-block my e-mail address another way, your "Junk Mail" blocker may NOT allow my messages to get to you!
Especially bad on this situation is AOL! Why are my e-mails being blocked? Because spam blockers look for words commonly used in spam e-mails, like: "Congratulations" (as in: congratulations, you won an auction), and "Brand New," and "Guaranteed," and "How to pay" for your new equipment; and "Where to go to find" setup instructions for your new purchase, and similar words. And now many e-mail message with any links in them will cause it to be blocked as well (and I always give my customers links to important pages on my web site like instructions on how to set up the equipment, and links to free photographic tips and educational material. So if you want to communicate with me UNBLOCK MY E-MAIL ADDRESS NOW! Thanks for understanding.

ALSO: Please understand, I just don't have the time to reply to automatic anti-spam e-mail messages sent by a computer asking me to open a web browser, then follow a link to a web page where I must enter my email address yet again, re-enter my name, enter a message explaining why you should allow my e-mail to reach you, and copy a weird security code into a form just so my e-mails can get through to you! I invest a lot of time and effort to keep you updated on your order, and answering your questions. I have thousands of customers, and if I have to go through all this extra work, I would not be able to process orders in a timely fashion for my wonderful and beloved customers. If you choose use such a spam filter, you must also assume the responsibility to unblock my e-mail address. If you do not, then you will not receive my e-mails. So, please, pretty please, have a heart and gimmie a break, huh? UNBLOCK my e-mail address. And that's all she wrote!

Details, details, details....
·
All payments must be in US dollars, and all checks drawn on a US bank.
· All orders from Canada, Puerto Rico, Alaska, Hawaii, and any other countries MUST include your phone number, or it cannot be shipped.
· Orders from Puerto Rico, Alaska, and Hawaii can ONLY be shipped via UPS Second Day Air or Next Day Air, so be sure to include the appropriate shipping charges or your order will be delayed. Shipping charges for APO and FPO addresses will be higher than those listed. Please e-mail me for a shipping quote.
· While personal and business checks are welcome, it will delay shipment of your order by 5-12 BUSINESS days.
· If you send me an e-mail and don't receive a response within a couple of business days (give me a little more time during holiday periods), please re-send it. I receive over 1,000 (yes, one thousand) e-mail messages every week, and do my best to keep up, but there's only one of me, so have some pity. ALSO, Lately, I've been having trouble with some customers' "spam blockers" - those programs that purport to filter out spam and let through "good" e-mail messages. Actually, most spam blockers suck! So before excoriating me about not answering your e-mail, first go look in your spam blocker's junk mail mailbox, and most likely you'll find my previous e-mail message(s), which were most likely unceremoniously tossed aside like a dirty washcloth by poorly-written algorithms in inferior spam blocker software - and I assure you that my "filtered out" e-mail messages are weeping uncontrollably at being so terribly mistreated by second-class software authors and their worthless progeny! ;-) Sorry for the resentment, but it's really annoying to have to send the same e-mail messages half a dozen times, and still have my (beloved) customers not receive it - and then get mad at me for not replying to them.
· Lots of local folks ask about visiting my store, or picking up their order personally; this won't work because I don't have a store (that's how I can sell this brand new equipment for such low prices), and the warehouse does not allow individual pickups.
· While I don't ship to foreign countries (outside of Canada), if you arrange for an international freight carrier to pickup of your order, I'll be glad to pack it up and have it waiting for pickup by your shipping company.
· Being human (yeah, believe it or not), I might even make a mistake (yes, as hard as it may be to believe, I actually did make a mistake once - I think it was back in '81:), and if I ever do again, I'll make it right just as soon as I realize it; so please don't hesitate to let me know if I mess up somewhere - I'll do whatever it takes to make you a happy camper.
· If you should ever be tempted to leave negative feedback for me, PLEASE contact me first (and give me some time to reply); I'll offer the same courtesy for you. Also, please understand that it is absolutely impossible to please EVERYBODY! Just check my feedback, and you'll see that thousands and thousands of my (cherished) eBay customers are absolutely thrilled with their purchases (and thousands more non-eBay customers, too) - but very rarely, every now and then, someone pops up who is absolutely impossible to please! But I have no doubt that any fair-minded individual will see through those kinds of folks, and realize that pleasing way, way, over 99% of everybody is about as good as it ever gets.
· You are REQUIRED to be absolutely, positively, 100% THRILLED with your order as well as my customer service! You have no choice in the matter, so give up any foolish notions you might have about not being 100% happy. So there! Seriously, though, I'll do my very best to assure that you're always 100% satisfied with our transaction(s), and please don't hesitate to let me know if there's anything else I can do to make your purchase - and your photography and/or videography - as enjoyable and as satisfying as possible. Please realize that I'm not some huge corporation, trying to squeeze every last cent of profit out of their customers; I'm just a regular person (like you, perhaps) who is doing his very best to help you improve your photography/videography, and to deserve your business and your trust by being as honest, fair, and honorable as possible. Thanks for viewing this auction, it is appreciated. Take care, be happy, give those you love lotsa hugs, and always keep your camera handy!.
