How to take higher quality photos with a digital camera?
Hi, We take photos for our online clothing store – mainly of models wearing T-shirts. However, the quality of the photos arn’t great. We use good lighting – professional photography lights with white light x 2 on each side (they don’t flash or anything though).
The skin of the model always seems to come out great quality, but the actual fabric of the T-shirt is a bit grainy especially on darker coloured tees.
We just use a standard digital camera. Is there a setting that can be changed to increase the quality? Or do we need a different kind of camera? We want the same professional quality as the big online stores have.
Many thanks!
If you’re using a point-and-shoot camera you should set the ISO as low as possible.
That may mean you’ll have to use more powerful lights to get a proper exposure.
If you are already shooting at the lowest ISO, you should consider purchasing a DSLR.
But don’t shell out for one until you have tried the above.
Hope this helps.
