Foldio3 25" Studio TEnt Box

I use my Foldio3 tent box all the time. It saves so much time not having to declutter and prepare a suitable background for photos, or to set up the lighting. It has been brilliant for photographing things that I am selling on eBay. I'm so glad that I got the larger version, it is so much more versatile than a smaller light tent.

What I like about it:
  • It is large enough (25"), but not so large that that I can't find space for it​
  • The background sheet can be changed for different colours & effects (it comes with black & white) 
  • It has built in lighting plus optional extras 
  • It packs away flattened into a storage box when not in use
  • The lights are dimmable
  • It has a heap of accessories to choose from
  • It is easy to assemble - using magnets and velcro
Limitations:
  • Large/wide objects are hard to photograph without including the side cracks in the picture

Orangemonkie Foldio Halo Bar Kit

I also highly recommend the Halo Bars. The can attach to the magnets on the sides of the light tent, or positioned anywhere else that you choose. They are great for getting light into all the places that you need it. I purchased them as an add on later, and immediately wished that I had purchased them sooner.

Foldio3 Colored Backdrops

​You can buy extra backgrounds for your foldio3 in a range of colours and patterns. They are double-sided and can be attached to your foldio3 with magnets or clips. I have chosen to use velcro for ease, but it will mean that when I wish to use the reverse side there will be velcro visible on the edges of the background.
