Earlier this year we photographed the Toshiba X20 for a promotion in print, on the web and for brochures under direction from advertising agency Vitamin X Creative at Bondi.

Shooting electronic goods is certainly rewarding and achieving the required slick finish was challenging. Perhaps this is because like the products themselves, the shots need to be extremely precise and clean.  The real products surfaces are highly reflective and tend to highlight any fingerprints and any slight specks of dust. This probably why many of these type of images are often computer generated themselves.

Having said that, retouching was certainly part of producing the final images, most of which was carried out in house here at Studio Commercial.
