Spiegelreflex Kamera für Produktfotografie?
Hallo!
Ich bin auf der Suche nach einer Spiegelreflex Kamera für Produktfotografie (Kerzen im Glas). Ich bin absoluter Anfänger was Kameras angeht und hatte auch noch nie eine, möchte aber gerne meine Produktbilder verbessern.
Die Kamera darf gerne gebraucht sein und sollte bestenfalls nicht teurer als 200 – 300 Euro sein. Vielleicht kann mir jemand hier also eine gute, evtl. auch etwas ältere Kamera empfehlen, die ich auch gebraucht auf eBay finden kann z.B.
Würde mich sehr freuen & vielen Dank schon mal!
Liebe Grüße

Photographing products is an art for itself if they have to look really appealing. The camera is never decisive, but the light.
Just think of a reflective surface that exceeds the dynamic range. Then you’ll have to let something happen.
It can’t take a camera for you, it’s the photographer’s job. Here are some tips: https://www.whitewall.com/en/mag/productfotografie
For 200-300 Euro, you will also only get some older used cameras. But because of your motives, you don’t really need something challenging.
I’d advise you on Canon EOS 600D. The successor models (650D, 700D or 750D) should also be in your price range.
It won’t help you buy a good tool if you don’t master the craft.
Put your money in a professional training.
Why should I do an education just to make better photos? I’m self-employed, have a good setup and have been photographing for about two years – just with my phone. All I need is a camera to make more high-quality photos. 🤔
Addendum:
Look at this page, that’s what I mean with reproducible photos https://www.colorama.swiss/Verd%C3%BCnner/&rub=5&srv=product&pg=lst&pasId=65
These are not photo mountings, each product was photographed individually, which looks really cool 😎
What does a good setup mean?
For good product photos you have optimal 3 studio flashes, large softboxes approx. 60x80cm, 3 stands for the flash system. Of course a camera (which is quite irrelevant), a good lens and a tripod. A semi-transparent, curved photo table. A space to photograph 100% darken (no extraneous light) is of advantage, but with sufficient lightning power it is not absolutely necessary, very good are also positioning walls on rollers to avoid reflections. Photographing is exclusively manual. This gives you a reproducible photo environment. Every photo has the same look. If you are simply photographed in the blue, you can do what you want, each product photo looks different and on the website or in the catalogue this looks really unprofessional.
I put my product on the table (setup as described above) make 1 photo, if necessary adjust the flash performance somewhat and make the final photo. The photo is perfectly illuminated, it has no reflections or disturbing overexposed areas. If required, the photo can be released on the PC with a few clicks.
To work this way, it is not enough to buy only a good mirror reflex and to believe the photos would be better. On the contrary, the correction features of modern phones are so good that the photos look much better than a professional camera (as long as you don’t zoom on 100% and look at the picture exactly).
A photo course for product photography like this https://www.fotoschule-baur.ch/fotokurse/fotokurs-produktfotografie/ While it costs some money, it’s really useful, he’ll answer any questions, keep you from possibly very expensive mistakes and teach you in a day what you need to pay attention. The money you spend on the course You return less photos, because you know what you do and thus save many hours in subsequent image processing.
He’s right. If you work with the phone in full automatic mode and expect everything to be right at 1 push of a button, ne DSLR will not bring you great improvements (even the opposite). I also believe that good product photos can also be obtained with the mobile phone as long as you know how.
Someone who has never had a piano class before and has taught himself, also use a 10,000€ piano nix. He plays as bad as on a 50€ keyboard.
So if you want to save buy ne Canon Eos 20D .
is old, but I’m sorry. Completes them 🙂
