Putting Together a Budget DIY Lighting System
Friday, March 31st, 2006Article on building your own DIY studio lighting rig. A nice alternative to expensive lighting systems for amateur photographers.
A flexible lighting system is something that I have wanted to play with for a while, but like everything else in photography it seems to be a fairly expensive area to get into, at least when you consider the relative simplicity of a light-bulb.
Thankfully there are a number of cheap and widely-available or easily-made items that can provide most of the same functionality at a small fraction of the price. For under US$75, this article will show you how to put together a flexible and robust lighting system that is both useful and relatively easy on the hip pocket.
