Picture Quality

I have 4 Lugers I want to sell. How do I get the picture quality enough to show detail to a prospective buy?

Take pictures, crop them, then shrink them to fit on the forum, meanwhile changing the name, so if someone wants them in high resolution, you can send a couple of pictures to them.

Nice, defused light rather than flash or bright lights works best. Like sunlight that is near a window or under a overhang at home on the porch.

As you can see this Luger has one unmatched SN.

Don't use the flash on your camera. Use indirect (shaded) light outdoors, or the finish will get washed out in your photos.

Set the camera for closeup photography (the little flower symbol on most modern digital cameras) and use a tripod and the self timer to eliminate camera shake and get them into sharp focus.

Do not put postings of luger for sale as it must have a price.

The for sale section is the proper place and a price must be included!
