    Great shot!

    I have a Fujifilm X-T30 with the XF 18-55mm F2.8 lens, and am thinking of adding a lens or two to the kit. Which are your favorite lenses for watch photography?

    I really like the way you took the photos. It also needed some photoshop to remove those scars on the watch. I am also a photographer, but I am not a professional. I take my photos with the phone, but I save money to buy a new camera. I have some pictures taken of my watch, but they are not so great to show with you guys. By the way, I recommend you use different websites that offer you the possibility to take a photo session. You can use location scout to pick what place you would like to use for the photo session. That`s something new for us. Keep taking photos. You are doing a great job.

    Would share the beginning to take pictures with a cheap selfie-light for iphones (12 Euro) and home-made adapted to my RX1. You can chose different white´s and luminosity. Just adapted it to "single-handed". Not perfect, but it works fine.

    I generally do not make efforts for documentation photos, but sometimes I cannot resist. For example these were take with my Leica Digilux 1 and a 2x macrolens. I had bought this camera last year for silly money (less than 200 €) and look at what this 20 years old camera is capable of. Light was a simple desk lamp. The camera handheld.
