Hi there,



I really need to be pointed in the right direction, I'm wanting to take photos of my paintings without any distortion, they range in size from 12"x12" to 5'x6'. Any suggestions on what size and make of lens would be gratefully received ?



I'm looking to buy a compact digital cameras with the changeable lenses.



many thanks :-)

Could you describe a bit better what you need?



What kind of paintings? In a museum / gallery or as a visitor? Or are these paintings some you have done yourself? Is a tripod an option?



What quality do you need? What do you want to do whit it? Sell prints or for you personal enjoyment? Are you printing your files for sale?



What do you dislike about your current ( the borrowed set up) equipment.
enjoy
