Taurus CIA .38
A Taurus CIA model 851 .38 revolver: My first shot at product photography - a good buddy of mine is a gunsmith, and when I noticed my leg holster was sweating through and corroding the cylinder, I got him to refinish it in two-tone OD green and black Cerakote (a ceramic coating that can withstand quite a bit of punishment). I thought it came out very well. I've always enjoyed the fantastic firearms photography on Nighthawk Custom and Tactical's website, and I thought I might try my hand at a firearms product shot.
Strobist: Nikon D90, 18-200 Nikkor, hotshoed su800 triggering two Honl-snooted sb600's to the 3 and 9 o'clock positions at 1/64, two bare sb-r200's at 1/32 - one from the six o'clock and another from about the two o'clock position. A single sb900 suspended directly overhead at 1/128 to soften some of the shadows. Exposure was 1/200 at f/14, ISO 200.
