Essential Piece of Equipment
Now that the Holidays are over I'm hoping many of you have some leftover Christmas Gift cash because I'm about to make a rare equipment recommendation:The single most important piece of equipment necessary for improving your food photography is a tripod.
That's right, a tripod. I'm always amazed to learn that most people don't shoot with one. You see, a tripod opens up countless number of possibilities for shooting because it allows you to shoot with a slow shutter, therefore eliminating all camera shake.
If this all sounds terribly technical I'm afraid to say it is. Thankfully I found this fantastic post that is chock-full of information in which all of the technical mumbo-jumbo is simplified. This post is a gem, so spend some time with it and go out and get a tripod!

3 Responses to "Single Most Important Piece of Equipment!"Absolutely agree. And not only "a tripod", I would say a "sturdy tripod"....
I found these two posts immensely helpful in my research on the perfect tripod:

good luck carrying that into Spago. There are people who "fabricate" their food to look good on screen, and there are people who also love to eat out.
