DSLR Camera recommendation

Roger6000

Hi there,

I am looking for a DSLR camera with - lens ( focal length lens ..a range 35- or 80 -) 135mm
The DSLR camera must be capable of making RAW captures. It also must have a fully manual setting and focusing as well as program, aperture/shutter priority exposure modes.

Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks!

It was confirmed via Personal Message. I did tell the OP to post it in the forum.

Why this statement? Can't  be both and I can only go on what the OP says.

""I was under the impression that a full frame was required but this does not seem to be the case."

EOS 1DX and 1D Mk IV and less lenses then before!

First of all sorry for the mixup. I did tell the OP to post all class related supplies in the forum. But the OP posted extra material in the PM. So I will be going off what's in the forum from now on.

Congrats. I think this is a great camera to get started with. A lot of bang for the buck and it will serve you well, as you learn about the exposure triangle, composition, the various modes of the camera, etc. Now get out there and start shooting. Enjoy.
