Perspective in Product Photography

Perspective in Product Photography

Is perspective in table top product important? Does it play also a role in product photography, or it only matters in Architectural Photography? For my my architectural photography portfolio  click here

As an example I chose the same product, the same positioning and the same lighting set up. I was also taking pictures from the same  direction.

What makes this dramatic difference? How can I avoid perspective distortion?

Here is the simple answer:

Instead of approaching the product and using wide angle (zoom out), increase the distance from the object and zoom in. Compare both pictures.

The same type of perspective distortion will occur in portrait photography. See my another blog post.   Click here
