Estate Agency Photographic ServicesPanoramic imaging have been working with estate agents since 2001 offering help with every aspect of photography.
Property photography is core to estate agents business, and quite rightly agents invest huge resources to get their photographs in front of customers, including the camera equipment, time taken to photograph properties, back office software to process images, laser printers to print images, websites to display images and newspapers advertisements to sell properties. If you add up the amount of money tied up in producing images it is considerable. But if the quality of those images is poor, the resources are not being used as effectively as they could be.
Advice on cameras and lensesWe offer a range of services, beginning with free advice for agents looking to upgrade existing cameras or purchase new ones. We can recommend the best cameras and lenses for your specific needs (including wide angle lenses) and discuss any accessories that may be required from image cards to carry cases and tripods. Once agents have chosen a camera we can supply it, including our own quick guide in how to use it, to save them wading through instruction books. We also then support the product free for 30 days, so if there are any queries or problems over image quality or camera functions, help is just a phone call away.

Photography TrainingThe best camera in the world will still not take high quality interior images if it is set to AUTO, which is the default setting used by most agents. We offer a number of training courses to show agents how to use their cameras effectively to obtain professional quality images. Please click here to see details of all our training courses. Camera InsuranceInsuring camera equipment on office policies usually comes with a hefty excess. We can put agents in touch with specialist photographic insurers who can cover £1000 of equipment for as little as £30 per year with no excess. Sensor CleaningIf you are regularly changing lenses on your digital SLR cameras sooner or later dust will get onto the sensor causing black spots on your images. Sensor cleaning is a professional job which needs to be done correctly otherwise damage can occur to the sensor and/or mirror which can be very expensive to fix. If you return your camera to the manufacturer it may be away for 10-14 days or longer. We offer a fast sensor cleaning service which will usually see your camera returned in 48 hours. Camera RepairIf a camera develops a fault out of warranty, repair times with manufacturers can average 3-4 weeks. We can take all the hassle out of a repair by dealing with it for you, we will keep in contact with the repairer to ensure the job proceeds as quickly as possible and vet repair estimates to ensure they are reasonable. 360 Degree Virtual ToursWe also provide agents with equipment to allow them to create their own SINGLE SHOT virtual tours in house, these tours are proven to gain instructions. However there are many poor quality virtual tours on agent's websites which is why many agents have not adopted this technology. The reason is that agents have bought 360 degree lenses, with no specific camera instructions and no knowledge of how to shoot the images correctly. We have been producing professional 360 degree images for our corporate clients for nearly 10 years and we pass this knowledge and experience on to agents via optional 4 hour training sessions. The equipment we provide is the same as we use ourselves, so with the same equipment coupled with our training, there is no reason why agents should not be able to produce equally professional images, which would put most other agents offerings to shame.

Image HostingMost back office systems, e.g. Dezrez, Reapit cannot accept 360 degree images directly, and require that the images are used to create a tour which is hosted elsewhere, a link is then pasted into the back office system. This kind of software is few and far between, but we have developed our own software which is the most flexible of its kind, and gives the user complete control over the look of the finished tour. So we can provide an agent with end to end processing, from the equipment to take the images, software to unwrap the images and software to create multiple image virtual tours, all in house. We then offer a variety of support packages so that if there are any queries help is just a phone call or email away. Most of our support calls come from agents who are in properties, shooting images and we resolve the issue there and then so they can complete the shoot and do not have to make a return visit. Please click here to see a typical virtual tour created with the single shot lenses and displayed using our hosting software. Video ToursClick here to view our video tours. These Video Tours are created online from a selection of normal 'still' images. This offers a improved and memorable viewing experience for users of your website. Please call for details.
