Please read these instructions thoroughly before you

assemble and use the ePhotomaker.

1. Remove the contents from the blue carry case. Please

note that the grey card may flip open as you take it

out.

2. Check the contents, they should include:

1x ePhotomaker, 1x Support rod (folded in a loop),

1x Ezybalance grey card, 1x Mini tripod, 1x Carry case,

1x Blue 'daylight' film, 2x Double ended clips.

3. Take hold of the ePhotomaker by one of the black rims

and give it a shake. It will automatically pop-out to

form a tent shape with triangular side panels.

4. Position the two rounded triangular side panels to form

a tent shape with the open side facing you.

5. Tip the ePhotomaker up 90 degrees so that it rests on

the back panel.

6. Take hold of the support rod and locate the yellow

Velcro tabs. Separate the tabs and slowly let the rod

straighten out, whilst keeping hold of the velcro tabs at

each end.

7. Attach the support rod by fixing the yellow Velcro tabs

on the rod to the yellow Velcro tabs attached to the

black rim of the ePhotomaker, then turn the

ePhotomaker back 90 degrees onto its base.

8. Position the mini tripod in front of the ePhotomaker and

turn the locking screw anti-clockwise to allow the ball

and socket joint to rotate freely.

9. Attach your camera by screwing the top plate of the

tripod clockwise into the tripod mount on the base of

your camera. Then tighten the locking screw so the ball

and socket joint can no longer move.

10. To position your camera to take a photograph, you can

adjust the tilt and rotation of the camera by using the

locking screw. The height can also be adjusted by

extending the telescopic legs of the tripod.

11. Position your desk lamp on the left hand side of the

ePhotomaker. Then attach the blue 'daylight' film (if

required) onto the front of your lamp using the clips

provided. The clips will need assembling first (see

separate instructions with the clips).

What does the blue ‘daylight’ film do?

Most desk lamps incorporate a tungsten/

incandescent bulb which gives a slightly yellow

coloured light. Using the blue film will help

compensate for the yellow colour and simulate

‘daylight’ conditions with less colour cast.

12. Finally turn the flash on your camera to the OFF

position (refer to your camera manual for instructions

on how to do this). You are now ready to arrange your

first shot.

1. The sewn in fabric can be used as your background or

alternatively for a smoother finish you could insert a

paper/card sheet. This option is particularly useful if

you want your images on a coloured background.

2. Position the object you want to photograph centrally

inside the ePhotomaker.

3. Adjust the angle of the lamp to position the lighting to

suit the object being photographed.

4. Compose/frame the object in the viewfinder or LCD

screen of your camera as you would like to see the

finished image. Your now ready to press the shutter

button and take the photograph.

Depending on which type of camera you are using

there are some additional settings that you may need

to consider before you actually press the shutter.

Please see below

Using a Traditional Film Camera

Check that the film you are using has been balanced to

work with the light source you have chosen. The optional

blue film can be used to adjust your tungsten/incandescent

light source to simulate ‘daylight’ if required.

Using a Digital Camera (with optional manual mode)

Select the manual mode and ‘white balance’ your camera to

your chosen light source following the instructions in your

camera manual (use the blue ‘daylight’ film if required). See

examples below.

Another useful feature to consider altering is EV

compensation. This adjusts the lightness/darkness of your

image. Again, consult your manual for further instructions.

See examples below.

Using a Digital Camera (with automatic mode only)

If you only have an ‘automatic’ mode you may find it useful

to use the and the greycard blue ‘daylight’ film as

follows:

1. Place the grey card inside the ePhotomaker in front of

the object you want to photograph. Make sure the

printed 'crosshair' is in the centre of the image and as

close to the subject as possible.

2. With the grey card in position, half depress the shutter

on your camera. This locks the focus on the 'crosshair'

and automatically takes exposure readings from the

card.

3. Finally, while still holding the shutter in the half

depress position, remove the grey card from the

ePhotomaker and then press the shutter all the

way down. Your photograph is now taken.
