Best Compact Digital Camera for Real Estate

This web site presents the best compact digital cameras for real estate professionals. This site has links to Amazon.com for camera specifications, camera reviews and camera prices and to the cameras available on Ebay for bargin humters and out of production cameras.

Wide Angle Lens - 23mm or 28mm minimum (smaller number is better)
The cameras presented all have a WIDE angle lens necessary for great real estate photos. A good real estate camera MUST have a wide angle lens, be extremely portable and easy to use.

On Camera Flash
Most of the compact cameras have an on-camera flash that is great for taking photos of people up to 10 feet away. These on-camera flashes are not powerful enough to take high quality interior photographs, an external flash is required to take the highest quality interior photographs. The links in the table point to Digital Slave Flashes that should work with most cameras, the recommended flash and generic flashes that are less expensive.

Monopod or Tripod (Click on link for ebay auctions)
A monopod (stores under your car seat) or tripod allows you to hold the camera very steady so you can adjust the camera exposure setting to get high quality interior photographs (see your camera manual on exposure setting)
