In this article real estate professionals will learn about key features when it comes to buy a camera, and they’ll get some recommendation for matching camera models for real estate photography purposes.
Realtors who shoot their own photos are faced with the challenge of finding the right camera for this task. The market overview is unclear, manufacturers do not confess any weakness in their advertising promises (what else? ;-) ), and there is a constant stream of new cameras with new functions.
In addition to this the equipment should be portable and powerful at the same time.
The assignment to shoot this luxury villa on Tenerife Island comes unexpectedly – as usual. In early November I get a call from Spain. The very kind owner had visited my on-line presentations and asks if I could photograph her property on this Canary Island. She briefly describes this estate and it is immediately clear that a very attracitve assignment is waiting for me.
Finally new figures. Already one year ago I did an analysis on how well prospective buyers can inform themselves visually about properties on the internet. But the result was devastating: Barely 10 per cent of the offers contained acceptable real estate photographs. 320 ads on Germany’s leading real estate sales portal Immobilienscout24 where used for this analysis, limited to my home market Berlin at a purchase price of EUR 750,000+, rental appartment houses excluded. Certainly, in this high-end segment I had expected significantly better results.
It is so easy to create really bad real estate images. With these tips, you are guaranteed to make ugly shots of your properties.
Photography needs light. But too much light or the wrong kind of light may damage a strong real estate photograph. Luckily there is daylight saving time.
