I am a freelance writer and would like to post my own photos with my articles online. I know that I may need a camera with detachable lenses. Are there any good quality digital cameras that can match or better the 35mm cameras with detachable lenses? If so, what are they?
Best Answer: Depends what you mean by matching 35mm camera.
If you mean general quality of shots (sharp, crisp and vivid), then, as someone said - just about any dSLR will work for you. I would suggest not going crazy over a great dSLR body, but to pay close attention to a lens choice. Because lens is what really gathers the light and projects a picture on a camera sensor. A great super camera body with a cheap knock-off lens will be much worse than cheapest dSLR body with a great lens. Nikon D40 would be a camera I'd consider. Then choose the lens appropriately for your task... Or one of the Canon digital Rebels...
If by matching quality you mean resolution - as if you plan to print huge posters and banners, you may be out of luck. Rumor has it that lab tests show that to match a good 35mm film you need 40-60 megapixels. Hasselblad does make cameras with this much, but for the same money you can buy a great film SLR with an excellent lens and use the change to buy yourself a nice Lexus....
But I'm taking it that you are interested in a former case. All current dSLR's will give you great sharp and crisp results for up to 8x10 or even 11x14, provided you have a good lens and know a little bit about photography to get it right.
LEM.
- any current DSLR is suitable, thats why all photo journalists use them, plus the ease of posting the results online.
