I'd love to know what folks recommend as an all-purpose camera for museum work as well.  Please post publically.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Camera Recommendations



Good afternoon,



I am looking for new camera recommendations, it seems the camera we use to photograph the collections has died.  We bought it used, but the model is about 10 years old... it was a Nikon D40x.  Can anyone recommend a dslr camera or something comparable that they use and like?  We will be using this camera to photograph everything for practically everything inlcuding ag equipment, tractors, textiles, small objects, photographs, archival papers, etc. 



Thanks,

Julie
