Photography Turntable 12.6in, Rotating Display Stand 88-200lbs Capacity, Electric Spinning Platform for Products Display ,Motorized Lazy Susan with Remote Control for Angle ,Speed and Direction

Have only used it a few times so I can't speak to longevity, but the operation was easy and it does what I need. I'm not sure why so many comments on "confusing remote," as it is not at all confusing. Pre-set rotation increments, on/off. just the basics. Comes with an instruction guide. Very well packed in a box you will want to save for storage at home to protect the nice finish. Top surface is a slight amount off white that is fine for ebay use, but may not be white enough for professional product photography. Yes, it make moderately loud beeps, but that's not an issue for photographs. If you are filming a video, just delete your sound in post production.

I collect coins and love to photograph them in a professional manner. Pictured here, I have the first and the only cylindrical coin ever minted (2500 were made).Photographing this one was a quite a challenge. I wanted a movie-like sequence of the sides of this coin in a GIF Image of the coin, like the photo featured here, but with the sides of the coin rotating through 360°. I wanted the background of the rotating coin to be transparent, so the coin was floating over the orange background as in the picture above. Here's a link to my final rotating GIF:https://www.pixelsbypaul.com/Coins/i-Q8wmfXC/AI tried just making a movie of it in rotation, but the quality was not good enough, and it was quite a chore getting the images from the movie into the GIF file.To take 360 RAW file shots of the sides at 1° increments, I knew I would need a turntable like the one offered here. It took me awhile to find this one. It's the only one I could find.This one worked perfectly, and I developed a Photoshop workflow that let me create all the images and overlay them without nearly as much effort as the movie required.It only took me a half an hour to take the 360 images, and that was all I needed. The rotation on this turntable was perfect.I do have two suggestions that would’ve made this easier and better. First, I would like a much smaller version of this turntable, say 4 inches roughly. Most coins are small, and all or less than 4 inches. This would allow closer, better placement of the light panels I use, for better results.Second, I would like the center of this turntable to be well marked. Putting a coin in the exact center of the turntable would keep it in the same position in the photographs as the table turns.I highly recommend this turntable for anyone who needs its functionality.

I did a ton of research on turntables for 360 degree product photography. Everywhere from $10K plus full 360 automated to $1K ones with integrated software to just using a lazy Susan manually. I bought this one because it seemed good and the price wasn’t crazy. It works perfectly. I have it set up to do 360 degree shots 1/8th of a circle at a time. I simple push the remote, shoot my camera and repeat. If I screw up a shot I just revers 1/8th and reshoot that on shot.It goes in as little as 1/32nd of a circle to manual etc.I purchased a larger 2 ft circle of acrylic to place on top for a larger surface.There are 3rd party software solutions to combine all the shots and create the html to place on your web site.Only room for improvement is that the color of the turntable is actually more cream than white. The acrylic I purchased separately is pure white so I can get pure white shots. You can just as easily put some pure white paper on the turntable to make it white.Thanks for getting me what I needed to do my 360 degree shots.

This version is plug in style only. I hadn't noticed this when I first ordered. However, it has a smooth turn when rotating continuously which is what I was looking for in a unit with a remote control. I tried a different brand that was rechargeable which didn't turn smoothly at all. I am shooting product vidoes so a smooth turn is important for me. Another problem is that it is not a white white color. I am thinking about cutting a white fabric covering or probably looking for a white round cake plate or something to put on top to give it a nicer base. The top diameter is approximately 12.6-Inches so I would need to find a top that is about 13-Inches or larger. Overall, I am happy to have found a unit that has a smooth turn.

Me gustó mucho che o la calidad de la base, es grande, sólido y de buen material. Las funciones no son muy amplias aunque pareciera por la cantidad de botones en el control remoto.

It needs a mirror top which would make it even better

Nice speed range for video, Indexes in a lot of increments. Which is really nice. Not hard to lean. Glad I have it.
