1. Professional camera

Shooting Amazon main pictures is also commercial photography. Commercial photography has strict requirements on the quality of photos. When we shoot photos of Amazon products, we must choose professional cameras to shoot. The resolution of photos taken by professional cameras is clearer than that taken by our own mobile phones. As the main picture of the product, it must be clear. The clarity of mobile phones cannot be compared with that of professional cameras. Due to memory limitations, the size of the photosensitive elements used in mobile phones is much smaller than that of digital cameras, not to mention full-frame cameras.

2. Appropriate shooting angle

The shooting angle is very important whether it is product shooting or character shooting. When shooting Amazon product photos, you must also find a suitable angle to shoot. Commonly used shooting angles include overhead shooting, oblique shooting, and flat shooting. The most common product main pictures show the front, side, and back of the product.

3. Reasonable lighting

The light source is crucial to showing the three-dimensional sense of the product. We use lighting to show the three-dimensional effect of the product on the plane, which requires light and shadow. There are two ways to shoot the three-dimensional sense of the Amazon main picture product.

The first is to use side light and oblique side light. The projected light and the product surface have a certain angle, producing light and shadow, projection, and the shadow of the light is rich in layers, which can well express the three-dimensional sense of the product.

The second is to use fixed lighting on both sides to adjust the power of the flash, or change the distance between the lighting and the product to produce shadows. The light and dark difference produced by the lighting on both sides will produce shadows, making the object more three-dimensional.

Three, product interval:

The main picture of the product must fill more than 85% of the total frame area. You can use the "crop" and "resize" tools to operate.

Four, do not put irrelevant products:

In addition to the product, do not add other irrelevant things! The main picture as a whole must promote the actual product to be delivered. Adding unnecessary gifts will only mislead customers. This is also not in line with Amazon's standards.

Five, sub-picture requirements:

Amazon stipulates that the main picture must be a white background, and the sub-picture can be white, but it must be a solid color, so it is recommended to use a white background as much as possible to reduce the workload of post-editing.

It is not as difficult as it seems to take high-quality main picture photos without being an expert. This requires a mid-to-high-end camera, complete lighting techniques, accurate knowledge of shadows, contrast and shadow management information.

In order to avoid dependence on professional photographers, professional shooting techniques will increase production costs. In order to avoid pixels, blur, camera shake and focus loss, small and medium-sized sellers can improve their own shooting techniques.
