Im also trying to go for a glossy magazine look in the rendering, let me know what you think. Rendered in LightWorks and DOF added in photoshop http://smos.objectpaths.net/Ipods.jpg http://smos.objectpaths.net/Ipods2.jpg http://smos.objectpaths.net/Ipods3.jpg Post by Jack Edwards // Apr 13, 2007, 7:24am Jack Edwards Total Posts: 4062 Looks pretty good Matski. :) I did notice that the UV looks a little off on the stop/play button at the bottom of the gray pad. Also you have aliasing showing in the reflection on the black ipod in the top image. -Jack.

Bear in mind that I'm not a big fan of artificial cg Depth Of Field unless it's done just right. Photographers deliberately utilise DOF to focus the eye on the chosen subject which is in sharp focus - this mimics the behaviour of the human eye. Because your images have such a contrasting background the furthermost iPods don't blend in with it and thus are rather distracting IMHO. These pics would work far better with no DOF at all because of the contrasting monochromatic background. I would suggest finding a product display image that you like, that features the degree of DOF you want to work with. Use that image as a reference and try to reproduce the lighting, scale, proportions and DOF using your own iPod models and you should be able to make a good image great.

Would make all the difference I'm sure.
