Hello all. I am a chef looking to make nice food pictures. Nothing special, just something that I can adjust the light of.

Looking for a lightbox, or whatever you call it that is the box with the light control to make the colors come out.

Again, nothing massively professional. Also, can this work with a non-slr digital camera, or would I need an slr (took a miracle to get company to get me the digital non-slr)

Any idea on idiot proof box and where to buy in BKK.?

This site may give you some ideas.

I am not sure the camera matters too much, as long as you can adjust the colour temperature

to compensate for the artificial lighting.

No being funny, but have you tried natural daylight, taking your photos outside.

Give it a shot, could save you a bit of dough. :o

Kan Win :D

One of my favorite light sources is window light, I have used it succesfully for several different product shots. It works good for food. This time of year, a North window will give you soft illumination, the kind that a professional soft box emulates. I find direct light is too harsh for food, except if it is coming from behind as a rim light. It also helps to have a good reflector or fill light.
