The tablet pc was chosen for its versatility in input methods, its processing power, and also because you can easily carry this in one hand and use it comfortably when standing (CNET). This makes this computer very flexible and a better fit for its intended use and therefore it is our recommendation that this tablet pc be purchased for the photography business's use.

Conclusion
Our recommendations to the photography business are to purchase the Canon ES 550 D. camera and the Fujitsu Lifebook tablet pc to meet the needs of both the photographer and the image editor. The total cost of this expenditure will be 11,998 AED (5,099 + 5,099). The combination of these two items should allow the business to meet all of the needs of its entire customer base. This equipment combination also meets the portability requirements that are necessary because of the travel needs of the photographers. This combination of equipment should provide the competitive advantage that will allow this small business to succeed in the marketplace.
