Choose generation when

Generation is usually the stronger path when you need a new scene, new layout, different campaign mood, or fresh storytelling around the product.

Create new hero images
Build new detail-page sets
Explore new campaign directions
Localize visuals for new markets

Choose retouching when

Retouching is better when the original product photo is already close and only needs cleanup, sharper lighting, or more consistent presentation.

Fix backgrounds
Improve texture clarity
Refresh old catalog images
Keep the original composition

Haufige Fragen

Which option is cheaper in effort?

Retouching is usually lower effort when the existing product shot is already strong. Generation becomes more valuable when the team needs net-new creative.

Do teams need both?

Often yes. Many catalogs use generation for campaigns and hero sections, then retouching for library cleanup and day-to-day maintenance.
