Is An Ultra Wide Angle Lens Camera Worth The Investment for Real Estate?

Most real estate agents realize that the buying public is shifting away from newspapers and print marketing in favor of the internet.  It has been said many times that over 80% of all real estate consumers are using the internet as their primary method of searching for available homes BEFORE they ever contact a real estate professional.  This statistic is quite impressive and it leads me to a topic that I believe is worthy of discussing which is the use of digital camera wide angle lenses. 

This past weekend a real estate friend of mine from Colorado asked a group of us a question about digital cameras because she is about to make an investment and replace her current digital camera.  Her question caused me to do some serious thinking about her question and her needs so I wrote a blog titled "Digital Camera Wide Angle Lens Comparison".  The idea behind this blog was to share with some of my real estate friends and speakers a real life photo comparison using different camera lens settings so that everyone could actually see the differences.  I limited my photo examples to just four different photo views including a popular 35mm, 24mm, 17mm and an ultra wide 10mm photo.

After sharing my blog with our group several of the members asked if would be willing to post it on ActiveRain so here is a micro version of the blog and I am including a link to the original blog that I posted this past Saturday.  I hope that being able to see comparisons between the 4 different lens settings is helpful.

Mount Vernon Ohio Home Sales Annual Report

2008 was a fairly active year for the Mount Vernon Ohio housing market.  Every January I complete a very detailed real estate market study and I research more than 50 different searches using the Knox County MLS service.  The most important report I do each year is the residential home sale "State of the Market" report.  This report reveals specifically which home price ranges were hot and which prices ranges were soft.  

The Mount Vernon Ohio real estate market saw 211 residential homes sell in 2008.  The accumulative dollar volume of Mount Vernon homes sales was $22,261,688 in combined sales volume according the the Knox County Ohio Multiple Listing Service.  The 2008 average sales price for a home that sold in Mount Vernon was $105,506 with the highest residential home selling at $425,000.
