Here are three cameras on photo mode.
Canon Sd600 35mm (not wide angle, standard camera)
Kodak v705 (v570) 23mm Ultra Wide Angle Point and Shoot camera. (ignore ugly timestamp)
Expensive Nikon D90 DSLR With a 10mm-20mm Sigma, (10mm actually is "only" 15mm with this DSLR)
What do you think? Don't miss the VIDEO mode comparison in the previous post.
The only thing worse than a 35mm camera is a cell phone photo. Do you still have a 35mm?

I like the Canon sd600 35mm. The other two images appear to have their aspect ratio stretched, and the room in the photo looks bigger than it actually is. As a potential buyer, I dislike it greatly when the dimensions of a room in the photo are bigger than the room's actual dimensions.
Is that the one I am supposed to dislike?
I haven't seen the video comparison mode yet?
Frank -- Thanks for showing the 3 images in comparison -- very good illustration on the same shot. I have the V705 and love it's wide angle capability. I just got the Canon Rebel XSi and will decide if I need to get the expensive 10-22mm lens to go with it. Perhaps I'll try using the 18-55mm lens and see how it looks for my staging portfolio.
Frank this is a wonderful comparison. You don't happen to have a Nikon D60 that you could throw into the mix do you. It's the topic of consider discussion these days. Thanks for once again showing us the power of that Kodak. Why don't they recreate it in a new model?
Real interesting to see these three photos side by side. The difference between the Cannon and Nikon is huge!
I must admit the Cannon pic has very nice color to it and the room appears warm and inviting but a bit small.
The Nikon shot looks like a completely different home. The room looks cavernous.
Frank - I'd like to see the Nikon D60 in comparison also, if you have it. I like the Nikon and the Kodak shots. I don't think the Nikon is exaggerating the size of the room, I just think it is showing more of the actual space.
Debbie, it will be pretty much the same. The Camera body on a DSLR isn't what gets the photos wide, it is the lens.

I like the cell phone shot. It looks like the majority of pics agents take. :)

This post makes me miss my v705. Wow that was a good camera. Maybe I need to have Kodak fix it afterall.
The Kodak V705 seems the most effective for the size room. Clear and not too distorted. Much more exciting than the first standard camera shot.
The Nikon makes me dizzy. Why is that?
These are great. Thanks for the comps.

The Nikon makes you dizzy because it looks like it was shot at a crooked angle. To me it looks hand held and at an angle.
I see there are a lot of requests for a D60, the only difference you would see in an image that size is almost none. and the lack of autofocus on lenses with no built in motor.
also the exposure looks like it was 1/60 sec too long so the lights by the door in danger of being blown out from the brightness of the light entering the lens.
get a good wide angle lens, get PTlens to correct the lens distortion and correct the rest on GIMP(the free program) or Photoshop.
get all the verticals straight and the horizontals well horizontal. And you'll have some good shots.
That cell phone camera shot is brutal honest and there are a large number of realtors that take photos that way.
