Best scalecube for field and studio!
High quality product, scratch resistant surface, good mass to stay in place for field photos. I have one for three years that still looks brand new - and I use It in numerous photos almost every day in my business. The cloth drawstring pouch is a nice value added bonus to store your scalecube in.

Great for botany, entomology, geology, jewelry, and collectibles!
This one-inch cube is perfect for showing the scale of small objects in a professional, appealing way. It doesn’t matter whether I want to show free-central placentation of Lysimachia arvensis, or fine gold jewelry, or cute collectibles for resale – this one cube is precise and pretty enough for them all. It has concentric circles to help the camera focus, so I’m confident I’ll get a crisp image every time. This cube is plenty durable enough to take with me in the field. Love it!
