- Reflections should also be realistic.
- Shadows should be realistic and neutral.
- Retouching should be as seamless and undetectable as possible and be convincing at a minimum of 200% magnification (i.e. removal of expiration/best before dates).
- Colour should be matched to product PMS colours (list to be provided by designer). If PMS colour is not available or if colour is proprietary, users must either match as closely as possible to colour swatches or the actual RGB breakdown must be provided.
- The image should be photographed with large depth of field so that the whole product is sharp.
- The Image should not be over sharpened in the (digital) image processing
- The lighting of product should be uniform when the image is taken.
