If you are asking what kind of camera to get, then you are in no shape to start a business.
Take some courses online or at a college, study under an established pro.
Photoshop does not a photographer make, nor does the camera. A photographer can make a great image with any camera. Those are just the tools of the trade.
If you are starting a business, then you should already know what you need.

If you're starting a photography business, I suggest you get a loan and spend more money on the camera than you are planning to.

I know you're disappointed by the answers you've gotten so far.
But I have to agree - you just don't sound like you're ready.
Please know that everyone who has answered your question so far - at least the names I'm familiar with - are serious, experienced, and in several case, professionals.
They come here to share what they know because they care about the profession and they are generous with their time and talent. And they all know one thing: if you try to jump in before you're ready, you will be disappointed, and will probably fail.
We'd all like to help you avoid that heartbreaking experience. And we wish you well.
Step back, reconsider the information you've been offered, and move forward.
You just got a very good short course in business. For free!

If you are starting a business I hope it is in your spare time. If you are asking the web for business information - such as some important purchasing - you will be struggling to make money.
Your camera and equipment are the basis of your business - do not do this lightly. Talk to a good accountant to understand your obligations for tax etc, get a good camera and budget to have a negative cashflow for over six months.
For free digital storage check out www.hamowen.myphotomax.com (no need to buy and they garentee your storage for ever).
Good luck for your business venture, working for yourself is great fun and hugely rewarding (both emotionally and professionally).

Agree with above responses:
If you're asking what kind of camera you need, you are not prepared to run a photography business.

A good camera is going to run at least $600. We purchased the Canon Xti for our business and love it.

goto photography school and get the skills, - like any other profession
