Here's a 2-minute tutorial overview from Circuito that will show you how to make your own automated turntable for photography. With the ability to start, stop, and trigger the camera all by itself, this turntable is great for people looking for a streamlined product photo workflow.
If you do a lot of basic product photography, you might want to check out this video. In it, you'll learn how to build and operate your own 360° product photography turntable, and it'll only cost you about 15 or 20 bucks.
Back in 2014, the foldable pop-up lightbox called the Foldio2 got over $500,000 of funding through Kickstarter to make product photos easier to shoot.
Now the company behind that lightbox, ORANGEMUNKIE, is back with a new product: the Foldio360. It's a smart turntable that's designed to bring 360-degree photography to the masses.
We often share cool slow motion or time-lapse videos here on PetaPixel, but this video is a bit different. YouTube user brusspup uses a turntable spinning at 45RPM to create amazing optical illusion animations. To a human eye look at the turntable, everything looks like a blur, but record it at 24 frames per second, and amazing animations appear!
