I'm after some information regarding suitable cameras for taking aerial photographs, vertically, through a whole in the floor of a plane. I need to see fairly acurate detail on the ground, but I want the photos to take in a large enough area so they can be easily mosaiced.

I would also prefer something easy to use ie an automatic, as the photos will need to be taken in relatively quick succession. We are going to be needing it for scientific purposes - photographing soil erosion. I am not a photographer and do not have a great deal of time in which to learn how to use the camera, so I need something easy and reliable.

Any suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated.

Yours sincerely
