Lights Camera Action - Photo Studio Thoughts 2014

See @Alex Snyder for insights into his sources for products similar to SwissTrax Ribtrax

You must love my garage floor Joe :)

I can't say my experience is vast, but I can say that Checkered Flag used http://www.racedeck.com to cover the MINI showroom years ago and it was fantastic for wear/variety. I covered my own garage with it recently. So far so good :thumbup:

I have both racedeck (Freeflow XL) tiles and swisstrax (ribtrax) tiles in my office right now. Both are very quality products. RD is bigger tile and slightly cheaper price per foot but the ribtrax are thicker 3/4" and feel slightly more heavy duty.
 

✨ AI Highlights

Automotive dealers discuss best practices for building in-house photo studios, debating key components like turntables, lighting systems, backdrops, and workflow efficiency. The consensus emphasizes that professional guidance is critical, interior car photography is more challenging than exterior shots, and speed/consistency matter more than complex equipment that slows down the process. A major disagreement emerges between those advocating controlled indoor studios and those arguing that outdoor photography with natural light and the dealership building as backdrop produces superior, more authentic results.
