Phillip is correct. Lighting is key and really more important than the brand of the camera. Wide angle lenses are good also. I would go for 10-12mm wide angle lenses and at least f2.8, not f3.5 or f4.0 and certainly not f5.6.

As far as cameras go, one of the guru's I really respect and follow, Kirk Tuck, has recently recommended the Panasonic GH3 for video and pretty much anything else. But there are plenty of other cameras that will work if you have the right lens and lighting.

Learning how to light the interior of a home and balance that with light coming through windows to truly make the interior look great takes a bit of practice and some education. Here are a couple of good articles:

Sounds more like a robot that waits at the front door. Could have sign out front with a website address to activate the robot and see what it has to say and do. The robot could collect your personal information, phone number, etc. before letting you in and turning on the lights. You don't even want to get into airborne drones. Believe me.

Hi all,

My name is Wayne Walker. I am a former practicing RE and business attorney (in Vermont), who left law to secure a PhD in Public Policy Analysis and am now an Entrepreneur in Oklahoma. My nonprofit, Global ResQ, owns land with runways for flying Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. With all of the bad publicity about “drones,” and government restrictions on their use, we are expanding the mission of Global ResQ to focus on producing grass-fed beef on organic ranches for regional and local food banks. Consequently, I am very interested in finding ranches primarily in the Southern MO, SE Kansas, and NW Oklahoma areas. I am new to the RE investing world. I came to Bigger Pockets through Google searches and it looks like an incredible space to network, learn and develop marketing skills. I'm looking to learn as much as possible, make some great connections and build an investment network.
