<p>Hi, I need some advice on how to set up a home studio for photo sessions of my one-year old daughter. I can either use our living room or the basement as a temporary studio. The living room has off white paint while the basement has orange paint.<br>

I’d like to use artificial lighting (i.e. strobes, bulbs with softbox, etc) than the on-camera flash. I have both a DSLR (Canon 70D with 28-70/2.8L, 70-200/4L and 300/4L) and a film camera (Hasselblad 503CW with 50/4 and 120/4 Makro lenses).<br>

What would be a simple setup of a home studio in a situation like mine? What equipment are required – lighting bulbs, stands, strobe, softbox, reflector, back drops for the background, etc? <br>

Thanks for your help.<br>

Richard </p>

<p>Beautiful photos! I love them. Actually, I'm thinking about setting up a small studio at home to take some photos of my one-year daughter and wonder what set up you have in your studio. Do you mind if I ask how you set up your studio - lighting equipment, placement of lighting, drops for the background, etc? This is going to be my first time using studio lighting and would like to keep it simple and relatively not too expensive.<br>

Thanks so much.<br>

<br />Richard</p>

<p>I took some pictures with my 7D and 28-70/2.8L with high ISO (800 to 1200 range) and built-in speedlite, respectively. The pictures (uploaded to PC) seem unfocused and the color washed. All pictures are taken in JEPG format and no post-processing in Photoshop was performance.<br>

Is this normal for JEPG format? Do I need to calibrate the 7D with my 28-70/2.8L lens for focusing? FYI, I have limited experience using DSLR and have never done any post-processing/sharpening in Photoshop. I was primarily using films – 35mm and medium format before.<br>

On photo.net I’ve seen many very sharp and colorful pictures posted and I imagine the 7D and 28-70/2.8L have the capability to capture images with similar sharpness and colors.<br>

Would someone explain to me the process working with DSLR such as 7D? Is post-processing/sharpening mandatory? How about RAW format? Thanks.</p>

<p>Hi guys, thanks so much for your feedbacks and suggestions. I'll definitely explore those options and combinations. Well, it's interesting that Dan brought up the topic of lighting setup at home for photographing kids/babies. I was thinking about setting up a simple studio lighting in our family room and wonder if what would be a good starting point. Could someone chip in on home studio setup by recommending some lighting, reflection, flash, etc? <br>

As to the 24-105/4L IS lens some of you recommended, I was hesitating about it. FYI, I ever owned the 17-40/4L briefly and sold it because it's not sharp enough or has great color rendition comparing with my 28-70/2.8L. Not sure if the 24-105/4L IS is more like the 17-40 or the 28-70/2.8 in terms of optical quality. Also, 24-105 has many instances of sample variances. <br>

In addition, I don't intend to replace 28-70/2.8L with the newer 24-70/2.8L II, which is more that double the price and bigger and heavier. </p>

<p>Hi, I’m expecting my first child and I want to take the opportunity to update my photo gears in anticipating our new born. Very excited!<br>

I’d like to see some suggestions on building a DSLR system around Canon 5D II or III that can be used mainly for portraiture of kids/family for the next 3-5 years. Below are what I’ve been using in the past 10 years or so – both 35mm film and medium format:<br>

<strong>35mm film</strong> (never owned a DSLR so far; ever used 5D and 60D for travel):<br>

EOS 3 with 28-70/2.8L, 70-200/4L, 300/4L IS, 1.4X teleconverter, EX550 speedlite;<br>

I intend to replace the 70-200/4L with a couple of prime lenses and have the following in mind: 50/1.4, 85/1.8, 100/2.8L IS Macro, 135/2L (too long a focal length for portrait indoor home?) or 85/1.2L MK II (too expensive, heavy and slow focusing for capturing motions of baby/kids?). Optical performance and AF speed will dictate my choice. <br>

Alternatively, I might consider the 70-200/2.8L IS MKII but it’s much heavier and bigger than my current 70-200/4L non IS. What’ll I gain if I get the 70-200/2.8 IS II? For portraiture, I opt for faster lenses (f2.8 or faster). FYI, I ever owned the 70-200/2.8 non IS but replaced it with 70-20//4L due to its size/weight for travel. Beautiful lens but on the big/heavy side. I imagine the 70-200/2.8 IS II is even bigger and heavier.<br>

<strong>Medium Format:</strong> Hasselblad 503CW, 120/4 CFi Makro and 50/4 CFi FLE for black&white film, B&W and color slides. No intention to get MF digital back. For digital, I’ll stay with 35mm.<br>

BTW, I know Zeiss offers a wide range manual focus prime lenses (50/1.4, 85/1.4, 100/2, 135/2 APO, 21/2.8, 35/1.4, 35/2.0, 25/2.0, etc) for Canon EF EOS mount. When are they manufactured? Japan or Germany? Are any of them superior in optical quality/color rendition to Canon’s offerings? Any hands-on experience with them? <br>

Thanks for your input.</p>
