I recently purchased the DUCLUS Light Box Photography, 12"x12" Professional, and I must say, I'm thoroughly impressed. As an amateur photographer looking to improve my product photography skills, this lightbox has been a game-changer.The build quality is excellent; it's sturdy yet lightweight, making it easy to transport and set up wherever I need it. The 12"x12" size is perfect for capturing small to medium-sized items, providing ample space for creativity without being cumbersome.The LED lighting is superb, providing consistent and evenly distributed light, which eliminates harsh shadows and ensures accurate color representation. I appreciate the adjustable brightness feature, allowing me to tailor the lighting to suit different shooting scenarios.Setting up the lightbox was a breeze, thanks to the simple assembly instructions provided. Within minutes, I had it up and running, ready to shoot. The included backgrounds offer versatility, allowing me to create various aesthetic backdrops to complement different products.Overall, the DUCLUS Light Box Photography, 12"x12" Professional, exceeds my expectations in terms of quality, functionality, and affordability. It's an invaluable tool for anyone looking to elevate their product photography.

The lighting is bright!. Assembling was a little bit of a challenge. Comes with different background colors. They come out nicely but the background fabrics have to be cleaned with a lint roller as they attrack all kinds of lint. I wish it was a little bit bigger but it is great for small items like stickers. The flap at the top where the hole is kept getting in the way because the whole thing is a little flimsy. Overall, good investment. Gets the job done. Pictures came out nicely!

First up, we should really cover what this is and what it isn't. What it isn't is a professional grade matte and illumination enclosure. What it also isn't is very large. Do be mindful of the product description -- the box is about 8-1/2" square when assembled, actually a little less than the claimed 9" due to the thickness of the material and not very precise locations of the assembly tabs. Don't be fooled by the product photos, either; they have items Photoshopped into them that imply you can take pictures of much larger objects than would actually fit into this box. You don't want to stuff the thing super full anyway, because larger objects run the risk of getting the corners of the box, casting big and tough to deal with shadows, or worse, forcing such a wide shot that the light ring gets into it.What it IS, though, is a very good value for the specific use case of taking brightly lit and mostly evenly illuminated pictures of small objects. I use it to take pictures of pocketknives, coins, and other sundry gizmos of similar size. It IS possible to get professional level results out of this if you know what you're doing and you're willing to put in a little effort.Let's not beat around the bush too much, though. This is a $10 enclosure. At the end of the day, it's a plastic box with a ring light in the top of it. For much more than that, it would be trivial to make this yourself. But for the price, I think it's worth it even if you outgrow it quickly and all you get is to be able to rip the ring light out and use it in something else.I will say that the included multiple color background swatches are not a value add proposition. I found them to be completely useless, because they all have a very pronounced texture to them. If you want to take a picture with the intent of easily knocking the background out of it in post-production, this is exactly what you DON'T want. That's because the texture creates all kinds of little shadows in the background of your shot, some of them which may be tough to separate from the edges of the item you're actually trying to photograph. You know that woven embossed fabric that reusable shopping bags are made out of? They're made out of exactly that. And the default white one is actually noticeably translucent, so the edges and seams in the plastic box beneath are visible through it.So I ditched the fabric swatches and just use a plain sheet of white printer paper for my backgrounds. As it happens, a normal sheet of 8.5x11" paper is pretty much a perfect fit for the width of this thing, and is long enough to curl up the rear of the box. Having a rounded surface at the back rather than a sharp corner is essential to getting a photo with a smooth background without a harsh seam running across it.The included ring light has a reasonably long USB cord on it, probably about 6 feet in total, with a titchy little pushbutton remote in the middle. The remote glows even when it's off so you can find it in the dark. It has the power button, color temperature selection, and brightness selection on it. That's it. Pleasantly, the thing does remember its last color temperature and brightness setting after you turn it off -- provided you leave it plugged into a power source. I just have mine plugged into an old phone charger brick. It works fine. You could plug it into a PC or laptop if wanted, but it'll forget its settings when you power off or unplug it.The three color temperatures consist of a reasonably high CRI cool white, a warm white, and a color that I can only describe as peach. I exclusively use the cool white setting. I can't think of any rational use case for the other two. The ring light is capable of QUITE thoroughly illuminating your chosen object owing to the small size of the box. Getting a lot of light on the subject is essential if you're going to be using your camera with the aperture wound as small as it can go, which you should in order to get good depth of field and have a hope of getting all of your subject into focus at such close range. Shadows are diminished, but not completely eliminated, by the reasonably high reflectivity of the white plastic sides of the box. If you wanted to make it even better you could line the outside with aluminum foil or something else reflective. You could also improve matters by fitting some kind of homebrew diffuser over the LED's, but I haven't gotten that dedicated yet.There's a hole in the top you can flip open if you want to shoot straight down from above, which peers right through the center of the ring light. Its little flap is just a cutout in the plastic, there's no hinge or latch or any kind of mechanism. If you open it you can never quite get it squarely closed again, but that doesn't really matter. The front of the box is open so you can take pictures straight through the front, and at various other angles. For best results, obviously, take your photos from angles that do not get the ring light into the frame. If you really want to go whole hog through the top port, you could lean a piece of white cardstock or something against the open side to reflect even more light inside the box.Theoretically this is portable, and you could take it apart and make it flat again for storage. It comes in a little bag that is, not surprisingly, made out of the same material as the background fabrics. I wouldn't put too much stock in this, though. The box is assembled by slotting tabs into little punch outs along the edges, and I can't imagine this would survive frequent rounds of assembly and disassembly. It's also fiddly, and annoying. Assembling it once was enough for me. I'm pretty sure it's made from polyethylene, which is capable of being flexed many times but if you develop a tear in it that would be permanent. Since I plan to use my little photo box regularly for a while, I just left it assembled and set up tucked in a corner. It's small; it doesn't take up much room even when it's put together.One thing about this box's smallness that works in its favor is you can use a regular smartphone to take pretty good product photos with it. This is tough with larger enclosures because most phones have a pretty wide field of view, and all but the fanciest models lack true optical zoom. Shoot from too far away and you wind up with 80% of your photo being useless white space, and you get precious few pixels across your actual subject. Getting close to the subject is therefore essential, and that's hard to do with an enclosure that's too big. As your attorney I advise you to locate whatever mechanism your phone has to manually adjust its white balance, because if you don't it will go absolutely bananas trying to figure it out automatically. Leave it to its own devices and you'll wind up with really inconsistent photos. So find that white balance setting and lock it down. Really, a proper digital camera with manual control of its aperture and white balance would be ideal, which you can accomplish even with many basic point-n-shoots from yesteryear. I use a crusty old Canon SX130IS for my purposes (so old it still takes AA batteries!) and it works just fine. The little box gets plenty bright enough that I can take short exposures and don't need to use a tripod.

The box is easy to set up and the lights are bright. The fabric that it comes with four backdrops appears cheap looking in my opinion. If you have other options for back up fabric, then this is perfect.

This light box is absolutely perfect for what I needed. I was looking to take great display photos of various smaller items and this does the job nicely. Comes with many different backdrop colors as well as very bright LED lights at the top. You can change the light setting to a few different shades which is a nice feature. It is a quick, easy build to have it up and running. I definitely recommend this to everybody.

Was super easy to assemble. Seems a little flimsy. Most importantly it made my product photos look great and made the product really stand out.

Doesn't take much to put this together. The quality is good and it's easy to use. Comes with everything you need to start using it on day one. I bought this to take pics for my online store and am very happy with it.

Para quienes publicamos artículos pequeños es muy útil y sobre todo práctica.

I had no idea what to expect for the price I paid (under £15) but the product and service I've received have far exceeded expectations.First the light box itself comes folded neatly inside a material storage bag (with handles in case you're taking your box around, nice touch), instructions are clear and well illustrated both for building and folding down the box and 6 colour mats to use as backdrops for pics (see the red in my pic). As a set it's perfect.The dual USB cable powers the front and back led light strips which really make your pictures pop. There is a hole in the top of the box for an alternate angle for pictures (probably perfect for jewelry or arts and crafts pics).I'm using my box for football cards for better clarity on ebay pics and posting socially, the difference it makes is incredible and well worth the price.Also great service from the company to send out a follow up support email that I'm sure will really help out some people, good stuff 👍

本格的なものを求めているのであればNGだが、簡易的なものとしては十分使える。

Product was ok and but the customer service is on top. Highly recommend
