Hello,

I finally got around to shooting a grouping of my favorite toys (which 
include an M4-2, just to keep on topic).  I had a heck of a time with 
the lighting as I discovered that my Norman studio umbrella light won't 
fire from a digital camera, so I played with bounce flash.  I really 
had difficulty trying to do closeups of watches with all kinds of 
reflections.  I suppose a light tent or other diffused lighting, plus a 
nice macro lense, would help.  This type of staged photography is new 
to me and I would appreciate any advice.
