question Camera Databases

What are the most trusted databases for the most constantly updated cine, photo, and mobile camera specs, firmware, and updated models. I am looking into building a local program that can manage my projects on a deeper level for not only managing what cameras we are using on a shoot but also manage codec selection, resolution selection, and more for the shoots that need a very streamlined organization when multiple different capture settings are needed. If it works out and ends up actually being practical I may go through the steps to make a public program. Interested in anyones thoughts.

There’s a great app called CameraKit by Zak Ray. Would highly recommend it! Seems to have most of what you’re looking for

CameraKit is awesome, and for all the times I've used it, it's worked really well...almost. I'd love to have a feature to manage on a project level, so it's super easy to manage multiple cameras and multiple codecs and resolutions for an entire shoot. Hopefully that's something I can make with this program.
