Ring flash + light defuser

avatar December 03, 2011 02:21PM
I currently sport a Canon580 flash but wish to ask this:

- would a ring flash be better for watch marco
Or
- should i just buy a light box / portable defuser to bounce the light

Cheers for any tips

I've also tried a ring flash with watches but gave up

Which light-box/tent then...

I have found this type of light tent to be a good compromise between size and utility

I think in this case a CPol would eat away...

I sometimes use a polarizing filter when shooting watches in display cases
