| Q. |
What is the Best Camera for PhotoModeler? |
| A. |
The About Cameras page provides some good background on cameras. To summarize: many cameras can be used, but a modern digital camera is the most common. The best is a digital SLR with fixed (non-zoom) wide-angle lens, but lower-cost point-and-shoot digital cameras work well too - some better than others. The low-cost cameras that work well either have a fixed lens or a stable and repeatable zoom lens, and have control over settings such as image stabilization, orientation detection, and manual focus. |
