This is a product shot I took for Stealth Fidget Spinners. It is a shame that the fidget spinner craze didn't last longer. These gave me an opportunity to be a little more creative with my photography. This was taken with my Pentax IST DL. I was using my 18 - 55 mm lens at ISO 200 F 5.6 and a shutter speed of 0.3 seconds. When mounted on a tripod, as I recommend. This keeps the camera steady and when shooting at low shutter speeds. I used a slow shutter speed on this shot to give a motion blur to the moving fidget spinner. For the lighting I used natural light from an open window. I find this to be the most ideal lighting to use in many different situations. In fact, I personally feel that natural light cannot be beat.
I have taken many product photos over the last several years. I will post more as time goes on. I am also planning on taking many more over the coming months. This is a good way to practice photography. You can easily find different items around your house, set them up in different ways and take the photo. This will give you an opportunity to play around with different ideas and see how they work for you.
