Minimun equipment necessary to start?

[Valerio Loi]

Hello guys! Let me introduce myself: I’m Valerio and I have just recently joined the community, as I want to improve my skills and extend my knowledge in the field.

I already work as a product photographer in my area but my range of action is quite limited due to the small market and my knowledge has not grown much recently, so that’s another thing holding me back.

I’m keen to start watching the tutorials and start learning but I’m now on a budget and I’m pretty sure I would not be able to afford all the equipment listed in the “Gear” section.

Do you think there’s a bare minimum of essential gear that I could buy in order to face the assignments?

I already own a full frame camera, tripod, 35mm, 50mm and 75mm lenses, 2x godox strobes, 2x rectangular softboxes, 3x self-made diffusion scrims, several clamps and 6 or so light stands.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Valerio

Hi,

You have everything, just go through the course you might need props as you go along, equipment wise you seem to be solid.

I wish you all the best.
