# Product photo usefulness survey

Find visual information missing from product listings.

If nothing was unclear or difficult, say so. Skip questions about steps you did not experience; use not applicable where appropriate.

## 1. Which view would help you understand the item?

Answer: ____________________

## 2. What scale reference was missing?

Answer: ____________________

## 3. What detail was difficult to see?

Answer: ____________________

## Author notes / illustrative keys where applicable

1. A useful view identifies the angle or visible feature shoppers need to understand the item. Use accurate photographs rather than implying that every perspective shows actual dimensions.
2. A missing scale reference reveals why an image cannot support the shopper's size expectation. Add verified dimensions or an accurately labeled reference, without implying that every visual perspective shows actual size.
3. A hard-to-see detail identifies what the existing photographs fail to communicate. Add an accurate view or verified description without inventing the item's features.

Interpretation caution: Do not alter images to misrepresent products.


## Illustrative finding and follow-up

Observation: Shoppers cannot judge the item's size from close-up photos.

Action to test: Add accurate scale and detail photographs.

Follow-up: After trying the change, repeat “Which view would help you understand the item?” with people who experienced it. Check whether they still describe the original issue: shoppers cannot judge the item's size from close-up photos. Compare explanations and sample context, rather than claiming the change caused an improvement.
