Camera for vehicle experts?
Dear community,
I am currently looking for a professional camera to work as a vehicle appraiser.
The price should be under 400 euros.
Whether SLR, system, compact, … it doesn't matter.
Which ones would you recommend to me to take good pictures of body damage, accidents, etc.?
So far, a colleague has recommended the Panasonic FZ-300 to me.
Thank you very much in advance!

Hello
eg used Olympus ZX 2 with ring light attachment (from the dental kit). The dental or medical sets are still in use for 1000 doctors.
Every used DSLR/DSLM with 18-55 Kit Zoom and system shoe of the last 15 years does. Pentax are sturdy, sealed and have a usable near-range correction, ie a K20 with DA 18-55 WR (apparently available under 200€). A butcher 15MS-1.(buyable under 100€)
The Pentax DA 18-55 is relatively low, even close. Only the first Nikkor AFS 18-55 ED recorded even less.
Thanks to pentaprism viewfinder with matte disc you can buy a Pentax K50/4 macro for small money eg (50€) and use, there is also a focus trap for snap-in shooter.
For court reports, you need WORM Drive capability and the Ident software.
Hello
The Canon Powershot Pro 1 with MT24 EX flash light was the long-term market-dominating camera in viewers and in the "light" forensics.
The reason was the flip-flop monitor, the video capability and the separate IR AF measuring systems for as near range, this has correctly sharpened and correctly exposed even in absolute darkness. The camera wasn't foolproof but almost. Can you buy from 50€ the pliers flashlight still costs over 200€
The disadvantage of Pro 1 is the triggering delay in the entry DSLR area and one cannot adjust the sharpening position cleanly one must always let AF retwist or push it appropriately. The Pro 1 was then often replaced by the Lumix FZ50 or Fuji S9500 or S100fs. You can also buy used from 50€. Since 2005, Lumix LX and FZ have been widespread due to their ergonomics and modular design. In addition, the devices are sturdy/reliable and have little strength.
A used Panasonic Lumix LX7 would be enough for this. Costs around 200€ to 250€ as a compact camera with a light intensity of F1.4.
If a new one is to be, then the bright Sony RX 100 I for 320€ as a compact camera.
Or a new Fuji X-T100 for 450€ as a system camera.
Thank you! From the Sony RX 100 I've heard more often. What is the big difference between RX100 Mark II and Mark I?
From the Sony RX 100 I to III the differences are not so great. A little more focal length, some different light intensity. If you can also spend 450€, get the Sony RX III, which is the best for photos. With the eye, you will hardly notice the difference. The Sony successors RX 100 IV and V are mainly interesting for video advanced. The photo quality is no longer good.
Did you just look, it seems to be a little better battery, a swingable LCD and a Wifi, right?
Hello
the RX100 I is relatively slow and has(te) a lot of "bugs" above all no system shoe. RX 100 I and II both have the 28-100/KB with "mode" edge resolution but this optics makes it better than Canon DSLR Kit Zooms or the Canon Powershot G5/7/9X types. From the RX100 III came the optically better/balanced 24-70/KB.
That's right. Thank you. I think it will be the Rx100 II, because Wlan/Nfc and more pivotable LCD is already very practical for me.
The question is if you really need it?
Actually, there's no high claim, that's what you're supposed to do with any camera in the price range.
Well, maybe something strong, where you can turn the ISO up sometimes without it starting to sound like stupid.
I would advise you an EOS M100 with kit objective (330€ at Camera-Express.de), plus a macro ring flash from Neewer (70€ on Amazon), so you can also illuminate dark spots in cars very well.
In theory, you can also take any phone, always with easy to use.
what do you promise for added value from a “right” camera?
Well, that's not exactly professional when you get to the customer and start taking pictures with your phone ^^
Even if it doesn't make any difference in quality.
Then give you something simple compact, RX100 in the direction, just don't spend too much money for the show.
Yes it will be the RX100.
