We've had numerous weekly e-marketing tips for you involving digital camera uses, features, recommendations, etc. As the only agent controlled virtual tour exhibitor at the recent NAR Midyear convention, numerous agents and brokers asked us for our recommendation for "the best digital camera".
It's obvious that digital cameras are now standard equipment for today's real estate professionals as almost every Realtor we meet at conventions tell us that they either already own a digital camera or their office provides one for them to borrow. For those few agents or company owners who still don't use a digital camera, I imagine you just need to find the right combination of features and value. Well today's newsletter should give you that final reason to start using a great digital camera!
While you can create a VisualTour® with ANY standard digital camera, there is one model that offers you the best features that a Realtor can use for today's marketing, should provide you with years of excellent use, and for a limited time has a $100 rebate from the manufacturer! This camera is the Kodak DC4800. Print this out, write it down, do what you must, but if you have any possible need for your first or a new digital camera, GO BUY THIS NOW! Here are the strengths of the Kodak DC4800:
Great
Real Estate Marketing Features:
*
The best built in wide angle lens on the market - 28 mm equivalent.
No need to buy wide angle lens attachments!
* Top quality resolution for print purposes. With a top resolution of 3.1 megapixels, you can take photos that you'd be proud to display on an 8 x 10 print to hang on your wall or include in any large format flyer or advertisement you use.
* Flexibility. You don't always need to use the top resolution setting. For your virtual tours, emailed photos or smaller print needs, you can set the resolution to a lower level, get the results you want and be able to take many more photos before having to download them from the memory card. And you get a 3 to 1 optical zooming plus another 2 to 1 digital zooming feature for close up shots.
*
Ergonomics. The size and weight of the DC4800 are smaller than average.
Perfect to fit into a jacket pocket, purse or your notebook PC carry
case!
*
Power consumption. The DC4800 includes rechargeable lithium ion
batteries and a recharger.
* Price. This camera carries a list price of $599. Kodak has extended a $100 mail in rebate until July 14, 2001 on this camera. And you can typically find the camera at a discount in many stores. In fact we've heard recently that Sam's Club members (a Wal-Mart super discount club) offers it for about $499 and even throws in a free accessory kit. With the rebate, your total cost drops to just $399. Also check your local electronics, camera or office supply stores for pricing and availability.
