NOVA Update!

Built a light box and have not posted any updates on my nova.

Light box test/nova update.

I like the sunshiny stripey!
Is there anywhere on here with instructions for lightboxes?

Not that I know of but it's easy.

Take a box cut a hole in the top.
Get a piece of white cardboard paper. Place the paper in and make sure it curves in the back so there is no
sharp edge (rounded edge I guess you would call it). Cut the edge of the paper as needed to make it fit.

As for bulbs... The natural light color temperature of the sun is 5500K. I went to Lowes and bought N:vision, 40 Watt, compact florescent, daylight bulbs (they are 5500K if you can get less then 40 watts I would get it). I have one on top and one on each side looking in.

Hope that helps,
J!

I found instructions on how to build one on a photography forum. I like the idea of making the back and bottom one piece. I plan on making a bigger one, and will try that the next time. There is a pic of mine in the photography area.
