USE A GOOD CAMERA


You can buy digital cameras for next to nothing these days. You donât have to spend thousands of dollars, but avoid, I mean run away from cheap, crap cameras. A couple hundred bucks or less will get you a decent lens, a few mega pixels of resolution, macro, zoom, full auto or manual tweaking, and let you preview the results in the camera, while youâre in front of your item, so you donât have to load the shots into your computer and then moan ãdamn, I didnât see that shadow, Iâll have to re-shoot.ä Donât buy a camera in which you canât see what youâve shot. Youâll regret it.





I use a Sony Mavica FD-91. Sure, itâs a few years old, and itâs only 1024x768 (XVGA) at its max res, but thatâs more than enough for eBay purposes and it has an absolutely killer lens with auto-focus and Sonyâs patented SteadiShot. I can handhold that big bruiser and get crystal clear pictures, whether Iâm shooting a car outside, or a tiny die cast model of one indoors. Just stay away from junk cameras. Youâll know them when you see them. Donât cheap out.
