That's not what I would call a light box. That's just a box to
provide a neutral background and little bit of bounce light.

A light box, or soft box, has translucent sides so external light

WRONG.

They CAN have translucent sides for more lighting and diffusing
possibilities, but that does not in and of itself make it a light-box. Its
function is what defines it as a light-box, not its materials nor
construction.

What is the function of the box shown that makes it a "light box"?

If you had ever taken a photograph with any kind of external lighting
other than the puny on-board flash of your Barbie P&S, you'd
understand what the function of a light box is. (Streetlights for bad
rare moth pictures excluded)


Hint: When you stop posting your vast array of ignorance in public, then
people who know far more than you ever will, will stop correcting you. It's
that simple. Let us all know when you figure that out.

It is noted that you did not answer the question. That translates to
the fact that you don't know what you're talking about and can't
supply an answer.

It had already been answered. You're just too much of a moron to realize
that so there was no reason to repeat it again.



A light box allows light to pass through it,

WRONG AGAIN (like that's any surprise). It *CAN* allow light to pass
through some structural sides of it, BUT NOT ALL DO.

No wonder that so many others have given up on correcting you. No doubt
your wife and all others in your life have given up on you as well so
you're now inflicting the whole world with your bull**** stupidity. You're
nothing but a hopeless moron. Terminally so.

For your own sake, and the sake of everyone else in the whole world --
PLEASE, GO ****IN' EDUCATE YOURSELF BEFORE TYPING ONE MORE WORD, EVER
AGAIN.

Correcting your relentless displays of ignorance is just hopelessly tedious
nonsense.



albeit diffused light. A
cardboard box does not.





sources can be used without creating glare spots on the object being
photographed.

This is not to say that your box is not useful or a good backdrop. I
just don't feel it's a "light box".

Just because your only knowledge of photography is what you read(?) and see
in magazine-ads doesn't make it right.
