    Cools, i was thinking about looking up light-box ideas/design on the way home today.

    Boom,

    there it is!

    Camera/camera apps: you might play with the "f-stop" settings too. Lower numbers, longer "exposure", better detail but camera must be steady.

    And now that most bulbs are rated in Kelvin temps for colors, you can play with that as well. 2700k is the "warm" light end and 6500 is "daylight" bluer color. 5000k strikes a good balance, and is becoming more available. I often "mix" the 2700 and 6500 for work area illumination.

    You might try the "y" sockets such that you can double up on bulbs (low-wattage stuff like CFL and LED) and work on colors/intensity. I do this with clamp-on utility lights (reflector removed).
