In the US the need for descriptive photos (ones showing the options and condition) are necessary because vehicle descriptions are so lousy.  Vehicle pages don't do a good job of showing the options/features that are most pertinent to that specific vehicle and don't use verbiage the average consumer understands. 


In my opinion this is why analytics around vehicle imagery hasn't been important.  We just know it is necessary to have decent photos.


However, I like what you're asking!  It would be cool to figure out whether a high-pixel-density image downsized to less than 1 megapixel has an impact on the amount of time a consumer gazes at it.  Does the image quality inspire a higher level of desire?


Or am I misinterpreting "top quality photos?"  I always took "quality" in photography to mean an image that was taken through a professional-grade camera.
