What camera would be best

Need help in selecting a camera and lenses.

Need good digital photos of both Paintings and landscapes.  Would like a camera with the option of different lenses.  Would like high pixel content and good battery life.

Advice would be appreciated.

Price range- middle 400-900

You'll be looking at the Rebel series for interchangable lenses and the T4i & T5i or the SL 1all of which have an 18 megapixel sensor. You may also want to research the EOS M (I haven't done any real reading about it.)

 

There are good reviews here that may point you in the right direction as to which fits your needs best

The kit lens included with Rebel bodies would be a good start lens wise but I'm sure you'll want to explore lenses more once you get shooting.
