I doubt very many people taking their own photos have an expensive camera like in the video. For do it yourself photos you have to have a better set up to remove the reflection from the ring. You need a box with tissue paper sides and top, and lights from 3 sides to take a decent picture.
When I take photos of rings, I use the strong Glue Dots. Place them under the ring shank. You can buy Glue Dots at craft stores like Hobby Lobby, or MIchaels.
It's a little strange that you use a sophisticated sonic jewelry cleaner, finger cots, tongs, etc. — then you use a DESK LAMP to light the jewelry for photography!
Hi, thank you very much for this excellet video. I shared your video with my group on facebook about photos. I live in Brazil and I was buying Ebay itens to do photos of jewelry. In this moment, I only have a camera Nikon D5200.
After see your comments, I created check list bellow of itens for photo of jewelry.

No need to stand up the ring if you have the right lightbox… https://youtu.be/RVO9Phs_Wbo
Forget about glue, wax and supports
Garnets tend to shatter in the sonic machine and emeralds are not a good idea to put in as well.
Awesome! Thank you so much!

Nice tutorial but be careful people with ultrasonic cleaning. It's not recommended for all gemstones. It can damage certain gems.
when I take photos of rings they always seem to appear very matte I use a light tent answer 3 studio lights. is it best not to use a light tent?

Great tips for lighting π
It's important to note that not all types of jewellery can go in the sonic!
Please don't put your emeralds, or similarly brittle stones in there as they'll shatter..!
