This photo adds significantly to its article and I think it's a good product shot. Alternatives can be found here

  • User:Vanderdecken/Support Also included possible second version - slightly colour corrected and cropped, I thought the original was a bit too yellow and had a bit too much negative space on the left, but I will support either of them. —Vanderdecken∴∫ξφ 13:03, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
Yeah good edit, thanks --Fir0002 08:06, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
Support - I don't think you'll find a more illustrative image of this camera. It makes a good photo out of a less than thrilling subject :) Raven4x4x 10:31, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Ordinary ad-type shot. Neutralitytalk 04:04, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose There's nothing that makes this photo "special". Also, that carrying strap behind the camera is distracting. --Janke | Talk 07:45, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose per above. Flcelloguy (A note?) 21:46, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Agree with above. Camerafiend 03:00, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Fir0002, perhaps you should be a little more discriminating in selecting pictures for FPC. I've just been noticing a few more opposes than usual for your images. (Of course, maybe you've just spoiled us rotten with your fabulous pics :P) enochlau (talk) 15:13, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
That might be one reason, but I'm not sure everyone appreciates how hard it is to get a product shot like this. --Fir0002 22:08, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment It's been said before: Choosing a FP doesn't depend on how hard it is to shoot/make. I've made lots of product shots, using studio flash lighting, umbrellas, reflectors etc., and semi-opaque acrylic with underneath lighting to get rid of shadows, etc - but I woudn't even think of submitting any of those for FP. There should be an element of "WOW!" in a FPC, if you ask me... like your 2nd "crepuscular rays", for instance - that one is a "Double-WOW!" --Janke | Talk 09:59, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose - agree with comments above. -Vontafeijos 16:49, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
