My photography hobby and work have converged into a glorious moment where I get to geek out on being a geek!
I'm working on a project where the client needs a digital camera. Rather than having them spend a bunch on a DSLR and lenses, I'm thinking all they really need is a high-end "point and shoot". This is especially important since technicians will be using it, not engineers or photographers who might take better care of it.
They need something good in low light with a wide focal range (~24mm to >600 mm). High-ish speed continuous drive (~7 or 8 FPS). A remote trigger and adding filters are desirable.
Speaking of the filters...
The camera will be used to document testing where water is mixed with a UV-luminous chemical and sprayed on a vehicle. UV lights provide the light, and the camera needs to be able to photograph the lit-up water streaks. Would a filter be required for this or should the camera be able to do this on its own?
Right now I'm looking at the Fuji HS25 EXR. It looks like it would get the job done at a reasonable price.
