About Martin Seymour
Expertise
I have worked in most aspects of still photography, using film and the wet process for 50 years. Employing all film formats 35mm to 8x10 sizes, I went over partly to digital cameras in 02, also PC editing of pictures. I still find film work more demanding , as you have to get it right at the start with no auto settings on the camera to cover my mistakes. Pictorial work is my personal interest. Its is not a good idea for me to suggest a particular make of equipment just a type, and its uses.

Answer
Hi Ga.
As my profile states i do not recommend specific equipment.
I have done a www search but could not come up with this camera ?

2- is mobile camera can perform the purpose ? if no why ? & also whats the advantages in handy cam exist rather than mobile cam ?---
Handy cam ? do you mean hand held --as to a tripod mounted ?

3- whats the standards has to be exist from where ( mega pixels , colour quality , dimensions) ?

I assume that you hope to make commercial work one day If this is the case then i suggest that you contact the possible recipient/agency of your work they will tell you the standards they require !

It would seem that you are at the very beginning of a new carrier --good luck-- this is a very competitive market so only the very best will be acceptable, have you considered a course --- either a uni or part time evening course ?
