Real Estate Photography

Real estate market is seeing a down fall these days. There is a lot of competition in this field. It's always important to present ones real estate with great care. No body will like be left behind in the race because of any reason. Nor did they want to lower their prices in order to stand out in the competition.

Stunning photography is another way to stand out without lowering the price. When buyer searches for any real estate, these days, in any given area, they end up with some photographs of various real estates. These links are hyperlinked to more details about the real estate and some more photographs. This makes the quality of photographs very important. So in the down market the photography helps to stand away from crowds.

Make sure that primary external photos are striking and shoot with great style and in how it should attract the buyer. Use the maximum number of strong images allowed by the broker's site. Prepare both image and video of the real estate. This will really improve you chance of selling your real estate at higher price.

Wide angle lenses for real estate photography. I had a conversation with many real estate photographers and came to the conclusion that they were suffering from misunderstanding about which lens is good for their DSLR's.

There are two types of DSLR's:
1.Full frame DSLR's: these have digital sensor of same size as 35 mm frame of film. Examples of full frame DSLR's are cannon 1DS, 1Ds MKI, Cannon 5 D, NikonD3.
2.APS DSLR which have sensor smaller than the 35mm frame of the film. Examples of small size sensor are: D300, D200, D40 etc.

When you mount a lens, say 18-55 mm, on a full size DSLR, then its a18-55 mm lens, just like you expect. However if we mount it on APS DSLR then the lens does not act as 18-55 mm lens. It acts like 28.8-88 mm lens. The smaller size lens has the property to multiply the focal length by the focal length multiplier.

This focal length multiplier is a big thing for real estate photographer. This means that standard lens kit which comes with DSLR isn't good for real estate photography. You will not be able to take the photograph properly. You might squeak into a big room but you will not be able to take the photograph since your lying beside the wall.

According to the Real estate photographer, the effective focal length is between 16mm and 24mm to be the sweet spot for shooting interiors. The bottom live is that to take real estate photographs focal length adjustment is very important. We should select it properly. Then only we can take good photographs.
