CanuckSARTech Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Beautiful looking wrappers! Thanks for sharing the pics!!!
Strada Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Very nice, and very nice pictures! What's your photo setup?
chrismfontanot Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 That really is a nice looking box, and must be pretty hard to come across I imagine. These don't even have a picture on cubancigarwebsite.
sblevit Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 Very nice, and very nice pictures! What's your photo setup? Thanks. Canon 5D Mk II with on those shots the EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM and last generation Canon Speedlight.

Strada Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Nice camers!The lighting is diffused very nicely on the first shot, you got a special setup?
sblevit Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 Nice camers!The lighting is diffused very nicely on the first shot, you got a special setup? I shot these pics essentially in very low light (almost dark), used a flash on normal setting and then had the following camera settings in Manual mode: 1/30 shutter speed (pretty slow), F13 (pretty wide) and ISO 200. Something like that seems to work pretty well on cigars. Then boost the contrast slightly in PShop and you've got it. If you could add two flashes on the sides, it would be perfect. I was messing around with a dark and light background on these and I think the dark background is much preferable. I shot them so that the images could be easily cut out for CCW.
Jszeto Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Great pictures, the perfect way to accentuate the beauty of your cigars.
