Collecting diecast Mini Coopers is my hobby. I’m a bit of an O.C. so I want to make an inventory of my collection. So I resort to taking photos.

In my recent experiment, I used my aging Sony DSC60 camera, a Sony VTR100 tripod, a study lamp with a flexible neck, and a roll of corrugated paper for the background.

The results were, well, not what I expected. The lighting was saturated, the focus and depth were off. I attribute it to technique (read: the lack of it).

Oh well, I will have to try better.
