In the business world, as well as our personal lives, much of how others perceive us relates directly to the quality at which we produce. This goes for websites, flyers, invitations, and even our personal social media. Producing visual content at an industry level will do nothing less than legitimize your brand.
Aside from being a client manager with Network 1, I have a flourishing entertainment career. In order to build my brand, I researched and invested in an industry-quality camera to compete with leading entertainers in the market. The camera I decided to purchase is the Panasonic G85.
For approximately $999, the sky is the limit for video production. Features include:
- 4K photo/video
- Unlimited recording time
- Post focus (selecting your focal point after you take the picture)
- Internal stabilization
- Built-in Wi-Fi connectivity
- Swivel LCD touchscreen
- Much, much more
I am now able to produce high-quality vlogs, music videos, and photographs. For any business, high-quality visuals are a must. When a potential client visits your website or digitally interacts with your business, high-quality photographs and well-produced visuals contribute a great deal to your brand.
Before you go out and rush to buy this camera, understand you will need to spend a bit of time in the user manual. Before I bought this camera, I knew close to nothing about photography. I had no idea how complex photography is and how much there is to learn. With that being said, if you find that you merely need a few pictures on your website, I would suggest you simply hire a photographer for 3 hours. On the other hand, maybe you find value in your business having a YouTube channel or uploading consistent content. In that case, I would say to bring production in-house and learn about your new camera.
