Camera question for Noob....
Posted on 7/7/15 at 4:16 pm

I need to get a camera that would be good for taking pictures of Real Estate, inside & out.
I assume I need something that can do Wide Angle, but other than that, I'm clueless.
Anything under $300 that would be good for this?

10-20 mm lens (Crop Sensor) - 17-35 mm lens (Full Frame)
They may sell wide-angle external iPhone lens attachments now though so check into that if you want to avoid purchasing a DSLR.

Get a nice full-frame DSLR with a wide angle lens - and put it on a tripod!! If you're in Real Estate, there's little reason not to.

Well that just blew the budget out the water...

Well I could go above $300 obviously, but would it be worth paying the money for a DSLR??
Any recs?

I'd go on Ebay and get a used Cannon or Nikon setup with a wide angle lens and an external flash. I think a really good flash unit would make a big difference in taking quality pics inside a home.
In this day and age of cell phone cameras I bet you could get a great set up for cheap. You don't need anywhere near the latest and the greatest for casual pics you'd be taking. A several year old system in good condition would work just fine for you.

It's tough to say. On the one hand I take much better pictures with the DSLR even in automode than I ever took with a point and shoot camera. BUT, the pictures that stand out typically are ones where the subject I was focusing on stands out because of the superior depth of field you often get out of DSLRs. If you're taking a picture of a room, I'm not sure what a DSLR gets you, especially considering most of these will be viewed at a relatively low resolution online.
