Re: Advice on an Inexpensive Home Macro/Still Life Setup

For lighting, I use window light with a sheet of styrofoam as a reflector to light up the shadows.

Some sheets of coloured paper (including grey and black) for backgrounds.

A table-top tripod.

If your camera accepts a cable release, this is very handy. Otherwise, set a 2 second delay.
