We present light curve analyses of contact binaries and comparisons with previously published cross-correlations radial velocity data. The critical parameter q (mass-ratio) obtained from a grid technique is confronted with the spectroscopic value. For total eclipsing systems, both values are always in a good or reasonable agreement, including some stars with shallow light curves. For partial eclipsing systems, convergent photometric and spectroscopic results are obtained for an important set of stars. Two exceptions are V523 Cas and XY Boo for which some arguments are suggested. We concluded that reliable parameter determinations can be obtained from pure photometric solutions, by means of grid techniques.
