Question 1

Would this be good for transfering art to watercolor paper? (would it shine well enough through watercolor paper)

Accepted Answer

I placed a sheet of strathmore 140 lb watercolor paper over it and it went through without a problem. I then placed two sheets over it, and while the image wasn't as clear as on one sheet, it was still clear enough to trace the image.

Question 2

What material is the surface made of? Can you use a razor blade on the surface?

Accepted Answer

I love this light pad... however it's not a cutting surface material. I use another piece of glass on the top if I need to utilize it thatway. Plenty of light goes through. Hope this helps.

Question 3

How many hours will this run? Is there a storage cover included?

Accepted Answer

It's ratted at 50,000 hours. Ours burns 8 hours a day 3 days a week since March 1st. Since its side lighting you won't get any dark spots, or burned out sections. If a LED fails, then the whole thing fails. As for a case, there is nothing available for it from the maker. What I did with mine was to purchase a standard Art Portfolio a little bigger then the light tablet. It works great for me, and it's really sturdy so you won't break it all that easy. The only spot I'm fearful about is the plug in port for power, if that spot took a hard hit it would damage the plug port for sure. Just don't paclk it with the power plug in the port, and you will be just fine.

Question 4

Anyone using this for flower photography?

Accepted Answer

I bought it *specifically* for flower photography, of whole and dissected flowers.

I put the light pad flat on a table, then two short plastic containers (~8cm tall) on it, then a piece of non-reflective glass (from a local framing store) on the containers, then the flower on the glass. I use a couple of LED lights to light the flower face, camera on tripod, use live view, focus, & check exposure. Always use the camera's timer.

Photos brought into Photoshop, magic wand tool, check select subject, copy to new layer. Edit as needed. Can leave it with a transparent background or put a new background color into a new layer.

This light pad is a real timesaver over how I was doing this.
