first attempt to shot product
pls comment on exposure, composition, etc..
thanks a lot
noted .. i like the idea of sprinkle water toohmm... here goes, the colour cast seems too warm (personal preferances), the wordings on the dial are not sharp, do adjust the angle taking the shot as the magnifying glass at the date seems distracting, do orientate the bezel to the actual position, do also remove any dirt on the watch before photo taking, last but not least sprinkle some water on the watch to add some zest to the pic (personal liking). anyway shoot more and find out the best shot tat works to ur liking most, look at international watch magazine ads and get some ideas.. dun fell discouraged thou..

The reason the majority of watch shots have the hands at 10:10 is because one shouldn't have the hour and minute hands obscure the brand name. People buy watches based on the brand, so the brand name must be legible. Focus is off & you've not managed to control the specular highlights. You've also shot at an angle, refer to the date window. Better to shoot it at an axis perpendicular to camera so the proportions look right.aahah..
thast something enlightening!
its either 10.10, 2.50 or 10.35.
minute hand and hour hand always perpendicular to each other!

got it ..
one question :
is the placement of the item eg this watch..(the location of the pic above is actually my desk and in the center of the blue mousepad) what should be a good background or better location specified for shooting products?
