pictures for ebay
« on: July 08, 2015, 20:02:41 »
Hi, i'm going to put my FM3A up for sale later. I've made some pictures and would like to hear from you whether you think they're good enough for ebay. It's got a dent in the prism housing, but that doesn't affect its operation. It should be clear from the pictures though. I don't think i can get as much as some of the others go for, since it's got this dent and i don't have the original box etc. anymore. Maybe you have some advice on that as well.

(Mods, if this is against forum rules, please remove the post).

Here are the pictures:

Should i reduce them somehow? Make them smaller, less quality, or just less pictures?

Make them as large and detailed as e-bay allows, this shows the potential buyers you have nothing to hide.

It will probably go for a pittance ;-(

Depending on camera and light setup presentation changes

even the obvioulsy worn down 60Micro found a happy new owner.

The first four are too dark...make them as light as the later shots.  Need to see detail on the black body.

Thanks all, good pointers. I'll redo them from the raw files with your advice in mind.
