what camera
im looking to invest in a good quality camera for work in the coming weeks. i will mainly be taking close up shots of products for our company catalogues its a bit of a minefield from my perspective on what camera to buy so thought i would seek your advice. price wise i havent been given a limit as yet but i can sway them on the price as it will be a good investment but i would say £400 max (dependent on lens etc) any advice is greatly appreciated. |

Get a DSLR. The new entry level Cannon or Nikon are great in that price range You can pick up a Nikon D70 for that too. Bloody great camera. Added: why? - you'll want something that will let you change apperture and shutterspeed. |

don't think you can go wrong with a DSLR. Only other camera I can recommend from use is the Canon Powershot series (latest G7 i think?) used a G5 for years. it's a sort of half-way-house compact with some manual override. good bit of kit for general use... and it looks awful so nobody tries to nick it - which is a great feature when using the camera in the city! Added: Actually. In Liverpool it will be nicked anyway Last edited by Do Gooder : 18-05-2007 at 09:55. |
