Someone decided to buy me some gear that I could use for producing photos and videos for buidings and houses ads.
What should I ask?
I'm currently thinking into buying some SD cards, GoPro, drone, lenses, tripods, a motorized slider, and a crane, microphone, continuous lighting, and a new desktop computer.
Any tips on what brands for what kind of product?
What about "kits" of products, like a kit that has 2 lightstands, softboxes and a green backdrop?
dont think a go pro would be very useful, or a microphone
get a good quality dslr with a wide angle lens
a sweet drone with good stability and capable of filming very smooth video, get a good mount for the dslr and use it to make flyovers of the house etc
use the dslr to take shots of each room etc, use a tripod
thats pretty much all you need, well some lighting shit too, to make the rooms look nice and some good editing software

Do you plan on doing some extreme sports in these buildings?

You do not need DSLR for that, you will do better with Sony A6300 - it is lighter and provides better video than most DSLRs including the most expensive ones.
There are also many manual focus ultrawides for Sone E/FE from Samyang and others. You may probably (cannot say for sure) even skip the GoPro because of how good Sony A6300 is.
DSLR is really not as convinient as MILC is for this application. The only drawback is battery life.

Wouldn't use a fisheye, it will distort buildings, just use a wide angle lens
Get a rig so the phantom can carry your DSLR, don't use a go pro

What about RAW video in 4k?
Also, Is micro SD with adapter worse than a full sized SD?

is that what the gopro is capable of now?

A Phantom can't really carry anything heavier than a GoPro. People have managed to strap really light DSLR/Mirrorless setups to them, but it's really sketchy and you don't get a gimbal or FPV or anything that way. OP would really have to step up to an Inspire or something to fly an ILC reliably.
I think a drone + GoPro is fine. People are familiar with Phantom footage these days, so the distortion etc isn't really a big deal, and I think it'd definitely add some "pop" to real estate ads.

Go with a Fuji.
mft is terrible for low light and once the ISO gets to a certain point, the photos become unusable.

hah. Convincing, cheers

Is there any big difference between xt10 and xt1?
>>2890058
Not a huge difference, no. They are essentially the same camera. The X-T10 doesn't have a weather sealed body, however.
>>2890061
I would be carrying a bag anyway or I can put it in some plastic.
I'm going for new xt10 body and used lens or should I just get the one that comes with the body? It's only 100£ more but I can always double it and go for something better, any recommendations?
I found these online:
18 f2xf
35/1.4
35/2.0 R RW
Samyang 12Mm F/2.0 Ncs Cs
18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS
What should I get as my main lens?
Should I just stick to 16-50?
