		<description>Do pictures submitted from &quot;owners of a product&quot; in addition to the pro-shots give any more credibility or conversion boost(in the same fashion as reviews)? 

I would assume it would depend on the product (and the photos). I&#039;ve been on sites where they include links to user submitted galleries of the products in action, but most of the time the photos themselves are poorly taken (cell phones etc.) 

Was curious if you had any info on studies of the positive or negative effects businesses have had doing this.</description>

		<description>Great article Jeff. Though the fact that you know what a gusseted jacket is frightens me a little.

(but I guess a stylish guy like you is up on these things :)

I&#039;ve found that women especially respond to multiple and quality product images.  they can be pickier shoppers with more criteria that matters to them, so anything you can do to address her questions can only help increse conversion.

Think of what she&#039;d do if she were looking at a product in a store - what would she look at?  How would she examine the product?   Try to recreate that online.

Good stuff as always

		<description>Recently I gave a lot of though on how product images can affect sales. And during my research I found 3DRev.com which offers &lt;a href=&quot;http//www.3drev.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;360 product view photography&lt;/a&gt;. I think it is a viable solution for e-commerce and it&#039;s not expensive. I couldn&#039;t find this technique in too many stores but I liked how various products can be shown using this method. Unfortunately I couldn&#039;t find any serious case studies too see if it does any good for online shops. Anyone knows if this will help?</description>
