Many agents have posted questions asking about which cameras are best for real estate photography. There is always more than one correct answer to that question. When buying a camera, many factors will come into play as, how much money do you want to spend?, will you be shooting video?, stills?, hybrid? Will you be doing your own photo and video editing? Are you comfortable learning and using the software that comes with many camers? How much time can you afford to invest? Even things like, how the grip on the camera fits your hand should be a consideration. Do you plan on investing in lighting systems/boxes? Tripods? Monopoles? Microphones? Will you also be using the camera for all around daily use? So many factors will need to be considered before you spend $500.00 - $3000.00 + on a camera and equipment just so you can take wide angle photos.
If you have asked around, researched, visited a camera store or two, and have narrowed your search down to few cameras you feel will provide you with what you are looking for, and in a price range you are comfortable with, yet you're still having trouble making that final decision before purchashing, consider renting your final choices for a week, and see which one you feel the most comfortable with.

There are a few stores in the DC and VA area where you can drop the camera equipment off after you have tested it out. Otherwise, ship it back. The benefit of returning it to a camera store like Ace Photo in Ashburn VA is, you can discuss it with camera propfessionals that are working there, and you can pick up lots of useful information while you're there.
