Hi there
I take quite a few product shots at work but I'm struggling to get that crisp white background.
Although I'm confident with Light Room and Photoshop, I'd feel happier getting it done correctly in camera.
My set up is pretty basic...two continuous lights and a seamless backdrop.
I shoot in manual, set custom WB and often use exposure compensation to a point just before the product starts to blow out.
Does anyone have any advice on how to set up my lighting sources in such a way that it (to think of a better phrase) over exposes the background but not the product, for example, angles, position, distance from scene etc?
Perhaps my exposure triangle is slightly off, so would using aperture priority help?
