best canon lens under 600 image
xblackxspa
I have an Olympus C-4000 and It takes good photos but doesn't get the details I want. I'm hoping to find a camera under $600. I want something that picks up lots of details from far away and up close. I take a lot of nature photos and I'm starting to try portraits.
Answer
Not sure exactly what you mean by 'details'.
A Hasselblad H3D is going to give you the best tonality for Black & White conversions. The Nikon D700 or Canon 5D Mark II would be adequate. I have not seen an APS-C camera that can really do B&W well.
"I want something that picks up lots of details from far away and up close."
If you are talking about physical details then you might look into prime macro lenses and telephoto lenses.

If you are truly serious about B&W you should look into a Mamiya RZ67 and Ilford Pan F, Tri-X or XP2. Film is still best for B&W imagery.

What is the best 35mm digital camera that will hold an wide angel lens priced under $600?
Mark's Min
Hi,
I need a 35 mm digital camera that I can attach a wide angel lens too. Obviously, I would also buy a separate compatible wide a angel lens. I would like at least 10 mega pixel and would like a camera. I can only spend $600 which includes any taxes.. Any ideas?
Answer
any of the modern digital SLR's (dSLR's) will be suitable
but there are few if any 35mm dSLR's in your budget, AFAIK only top end dSLR's like the Canon EOS..but they cost multi thousands
it comes down to what you call a wide angle lens. moder dSLR's tend to use smaller sensors than 35mm film format.. hence they have a so called 35mm equivalent.. for most thats around 1.25 to 1.5 times 35mm, for four thirds cameras (Olympus & Panasonic) this factor is twice. so they may produc e a lens which optically is 14-50mm zoom is quoted at 28-100mm equivalent for Olympus, or 32-75mm at 1.5 times
so having said that any dSLR with a suitable lens will do the job. despite what some people say I don't think there is as big a difference between the makes as people say. so go to a camera shop and make your own mind up as to which camera you like. theres is an argument that buying a Canon or Nikon on the basis that you may be able to get cheaper lenses secondhand on EBAY or similar, and that mey be true. Its also true that Nikon Canon and others built dSLR's that could use a photographers exisitng lenses.., anoither of the rreasons given why Cznonor Nikon may be better/// I'd argue the Olympus approach of starting from scratch desiging lenses for the digital requirements a smarter approach.. fourthirds lenses tend to be smaller and lighter.
An alternative approach would be to find a suitable lens and then buy the best camera body you want (remembering to allow for things like memory cards, protective filter, camera gadget bag, card reader etc....)
there is a steep learning curve to get the best out of the camera
