Best camera for aerial photography (IMO)

[MountainDude]

I have been using Sony RX10 for the last 3 years and it has been great for aerial photography. It can zoom from 24 mm (very wide) to 600 mm (super long telephoto), and has great image quality.
I wrote a mini review here, in case anyone is interested:

If others want to chime in with their recommended cameras and lenses, please do.

Very nice. Looks like a very capable machine.

For casual shots out the windows I use a Sony RX100, first edition. 28-100 mm, lightweight, pocket sized, running about $475 on Amazon. Later editions of the RX100 have greater focal length range, but cost two to three times as much.

Haha. Plenty of room for discussion. As a member of PAPA, there are all kinds of good cameras out there. The operator is more important than the camera most of the time. I run both Canon and Nikon depending on the job and the circumstance, and lenses are important, too.

Nikon and Canon are both very capable. The photographer skills are more important.
