What counts as a match?

[Daniel Obraczka]

Hello,

We were wondering about some details as what counts as a match. Specifically two questions:

1. If two cameras are the same but only differ in color are they considered a match?

2. You write on the task page "for instance, a Canon EOS 5D Mark II that is sold as a bundle with a bag represents the same core product as a Canon EOS 5D Mark II that is sold alone". Is this also true for entities that have the same camera but come with different lenses? E.g. would  www.ilgs.net//1 & www.ilgs.net//18 & www.ilgs.net//46 be considered a match?

Thank you for your answers,

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

1. If two cameras are the same but only differ in color are they considered a match?

Yes (e.g. if you have a Pentax K-50 black and a Pentax K-50 white, this pair is considered a match).

 2. You write on the task page "for instance, a Canon EOS 5D Mark II that is sold as a bundle with a bag represents the same core product as a Canon EOS 5D Mark II that is sold alone". Is this also true for entities that have the same camera but come with different lenses? E.g. would  www.ilgs.net//1 & www.ilgs.net//18 & www.ilgs.net//46 be considered a match?

Yes, those three specs are considered a match, too.
