Good day everyone.
As the thread title says, I'm here for help on equipment for setting up a photo and video business in Nigeria (important info - power supply is unsteady here, might factor into purchase suggestions?).
I have some recommendations already, as I list below. Any and all help will be appreciated.
First off,
I need a camera. I'm looking at the Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ-1000. From reports and reviews it seems to be a near perfect all-rounder at a very reasonable price. Not exactly fully professional, but it's a good starter, I think.
This package looks good: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L2DR1ZG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A36DL6WLK2RE7O&psc=1
Any accessories recommended for a starter?
Second:
I need a computer. Obviously a laptop due to aforementioned power issues, and value proposition. Will add a video crunching workstation later. Looking at something with quad core and dedicated graphics. Not too concerned about the screen because I am getting a monitor, below.

Third:
A good monitor for editing. The Dell U2415 is looking fine. Also the U2414H.

Fourth:
A drone. I know it's expensive, but the DJI Mavic Air (Fly More combo) seems like a solid bet.

Others:
An external hard drive for storage

So please any thoughts? Problems? Something better? Do help me out.
Thanks!
Forgot to say: budget is $3000 max.
