[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 191420, member: 12496"] Nylon is good. Linen too. The Ebay nylon tents are hard to beat. Note the purpose of such a light tent is really NOT about lighting. You can do lighting better without it, using standard lighting, like softboxes and umbrellas. The purpose of the tent is to present blank white featureless walls completely all around, to prevent visible reflections of the room objects in shiny subjects. The shiny subjects only reflect featureless blank white nothingness, same everywhere, nothing recognizable as such, not even as lines or edges. If you put your piping bars inside the tent corners, those are features which could reflect. For example, putting a blue or red flooring apron inside will have outer edges on it, which lines are features which could reflect. To avoid that, you want featureless white everywhere inside. Including a white front curtain with a slit for the camera lens (which is still going to reflect and show). [/QUOTE]
