So my friend is selling an iphone and asked me to take the picture for the ad. It´s a bit overkill for just an adpicture but stil..If you gonna do it, den go all the way =).

Would you think this is a serious and good photo to put up on: for example E-bay?.

    Often the picture makes the sale. Your friend should be very grateful for you!

    Photoshop the USB cord out of it, it is a little distracting...

    But I would buy it, if I already didn't own one ;)

    This is a good Primary shot but your friend needs shots showing any "wear and tear" on the product also.....so the buyer doesnot complain that he thought it was as good as new...............

    Looks pretty darn good, but I too would like to know if it is in fact in Brand New Condition, or if there are scratches etc on it.

    I'm sure your friend will be very pleased with the shot.
    Maybe you could have turned the iphone on ? show it lit up, not just the box with the picture on it?

    I agree it would be nice to see it turned on. The screen on the real one is a dead black hole compared to the one on the box!

    It´s brand new and never used. So no wear and tare on it..Absolutely flawless condition.

    It will be sold in sweden, so the market here is a bit different since apple won´t allow us this fine piece of enginering :(.

    Maby more views would be fine but still..It´s just an iphone and the buyer is aware of what it is?? xD. Anyways the ad is online atm. So i wich him good luck, cause he need the money :).

    Thanx for looking: the response was way better then i thought it would be clap.gifclap.

    To me it looks like a picture of an Ipod box, with the Ipod as an accessory. There's great detail on the box, and very little on the Ipod. I'd put the Ipod closer in the foreground so that it appears much larger and with greater detail. Then the box can be further in the background, because who cares about it. Turning the Ipod on like somebody mentioned above would be a bonus.

    Cheers,
