Calling all Photographers....In house product photography studio help

I know most people concentrate on adult but I am sure most of the top guys have the skills to produce top level product photography as well.

I am interested in building an inhouse studio that concentrates on product photography. I run a few mainstream e-commerce sites and we want to start bringing in the photography in hose.

What I need is the opinions and suggestions of you pros for the list of goodies I need to buy to get optimal results.

Here are a few questions I have but please feel free to add in points that I missed. I am not the expert here, you are

1. What Digital Camera should we get? Are there any cameras that are more favorable in product photography?

2. Lighting?

3. Seamless?

4. Stands? Table top?

5. Photoshop plugins?

6. Software filters etc.

I also want to be able to view on a large LCD or monitoe in real time as we are shooting so we can make adjustments on the fly. What software/hardware do we need for this?

Thanks,

Spankstrocko
