Both brands also allow for continuous shooting (anywhere from 5 to 7 frames per second) and have dual card slots for CF and SD cards. 2.Lenses – When setting up a fashion photography studio, a photographer must have a variety of lenses to choose from, from 30mm (wide angle shots) to 300mm (for zooming). 3.Lighting–It’s also a good idea to invest in an assortment of lights for the studio. Among the necessary types are floodlights, incandescent, and tungsten-halogen lamps that are vital so the subjects can be lighted properly. 4.Computer– This is necessary for post-production. A computer is used for colour correction, special effects, creative manipulation, and cropping. Of course, all digital files are stored on a computer, too.
