Shooting Tables & Tents FAQs
Are shooting tents only useful for small products?
While smaller tents are designed for compact items, larger models can accommodate mid-sized products. Shooting tables are a better option for anything bulky or oversized.

Soft, diffused lighting is ideal. You can use continuous lights, LED panels, or strobes with modifiers to ensure even coverage without harsh shadows or hotspots.
Do I need additional gear to use a shooting table or tent?
