Quick Answer#
GemLightbox Pro is the upgraded version of the original GemLightbox, designed with a larger photography space, additional built-in lighting options, integrated turntables, and compatibility with the GemIQ App.
It provides approximately 30% more photography space than the original GemLightbox, making it more suitable for larger jewelry pieces and more flexible shooting setups.
Key Differences#
More Photography Space#
GemLightbox Pro has a larger curved interior, providing approximately 30% more photography space than the original GemLightbox.
The additional space makes it easier to photograph larger or longer jewelry pieces, including statement necklaces, watches, and other accessories that require more room for positioning.
Advanced Built-In Lighting#
GemLightbox Pro includes additional built-in lighting options to give you more control over the appearance of your jewelry.
Sparkles: A direct lighting option designed to bring out the brilliance and fire of diamonds and faceted gemstones.
Yellow: A warmer lighting option that can be used when photographing colored gemstones and jewelry that benefits from a warmer tone.
These lighting options are integrated into the GemLightbox Pro itself and are separate from the removable accessories included with the unit.
Integrated Turntables#
GemLightbox Pro features two turntables integrated into the unit.
Because the turntables are built into the GemLightbox Pro, they are part of the hardware rather than separate accessories listed in the box contents.
They can be used to position jewelry at different angles and support consistent image and 360° video capture.
Faster Captures with Burst Mode#
When used together with the GemIQ App, GemLightbox Pro supports a faster capture workflow through Burst Mode.
Burst Mode allows you to capture four photos from different angles together with one 360° video in a single capture sequence.
This is an app-based capture function used with the GemLightbox Pro rather than a standalone hardware feature.
GemIQ App Integration#
GemLightbox Pro is designed to work together with the GemIQ App for jewelry photography, video capture, editing, and product content creation.
After capturing your jewelry, you can use available GemIQ tools to prepare your images for online stores, marketplaces, social media, and other digital sales channels.
Available editing tools may include features such as background removal and AI-powered image editing, depending on the current GemIQ App feature set.
