Amongst the light tents out there for producing small product shots is the Lastolite ePhotomaker.

Designed for one light, the unit is a pop-up type, with taut fabric including a white diffuser on one side and a silver reflector on the other, to provide coverage across the image.

The object is placed inside the tent with a light to the left side shooting through the diffuser fabric.

A collapsible reversible grey/white card is supplied to aid in exposure and white balance calculations, while a blue filter is also included for placing over a tungsten light source such as a desk lamp, to reduce the yellow colour balance.

Objects can be shot against the white sweep curve inside the tent, or other fabric or card could be used.

A table-top tripod is included for compact users too.
