I want to photograph products with a 30-inch light tent and need a white background. What type of lighting do you suggest? The kits I am looking at come in 3000 Kelvin or 5000 Kelvin. A. Either color temperature will do, as long as you set a custom white balance from the walls of the tent, or from a photo gray card positioned in the light of the tent. For the best color balance, shoot in RAW, then use a RAW converter to fine-tune the color to a neutral white. (And if you shoot a frame with the gray card in it, you can just click the software’s gray dropper on the gray target.) If you intend to use the light set for other photographic purposes, note that the 5000 K lights will balance close to daylight, while the 3000 K lights will balance closer to household tungsten bulbs.
