Hi Jeri,
 
I have a recommendation from Colin White, Deputy Head of our Photographic
Dept, who writes:
 
The fuji S7000 is a good cheap digital camera with lots of functions (flash,
zoom, etc), and pretty good image quality. I think it is very reasonably
priced ( under £500). 
 
Hope this is useful,

Subject: digital cameras?



 

I'm shopping for digital cameras for general use by our staff (registrars,
curators, art handlers, conservators, etc.). They'd be used for general
identification shots, packing & crating documentation, as well as for detail
shots when needed. We'd like to get something simple, but at the same time a
camera that will produce dependable results under many different lighting
conditions. For ease of support and training, we're hoping to purchase the
same general use model across departments. These images will land in our TMS
database for internal use/reference. 

 

Are there any camera recommendations in this crowd? Anyone have a camera
that you & your staff love?

 

Thanks,

Jeri
