35mm Digital Camera
Saturday, September 3rd, 2011
What would be the best Digital Camera to match the quality of a 35mm camera for up-close detailed shots?
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?
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 8×10 or even 11×14, provided you have a good lens and know a little bit about photography to get it right.

Fisheye 2 35mm Camera $69.99 Lomography Fisheye 2 35mm Camera FeaturesNothing But The Good StuffAs any cocktail slinger, bashful barfly, or hard-partier knows, a drink is only as good as the stuff that goes into it. When we say that the sexy item in your hands is the best compact fisheye camera ever conceived, we mean it! Here’s your proof.The world’s greatest compact Fisheye camera is now more amazing than you ever thought possible! Not only does it have same 170-degree wide-angle view and stunning fisheye barrel distortion, but the Fisheye No. 2 adds a bulb setting for long exposures, a switch for multiple exposures on the same frame, the ability to fire both a hotshoe flash and the built-in flash, a true fisheye viewfinder, and a “full metal jacket” body treatment. With this new arsenal, the possibilities for your Fisheye lomography are endless! Uses normal 35mm film that can be developed anywhere. “B” (Bulb) settingIn response to heavy demand from the Lomographic Community at large, the Fisheye 2 has a slamming long-exposure setting. By holding down the shutter button with your finger, you can keep the shutter open for as long as you like – thereby inviting all the gorgeous ambient light outside to come on in. To close the shutter, merely release the button. When using 400ISO film, keeping the shutter open for about 1-3 seconds is usually enough for a nightime city shot. Extend that to 5 seconds or so for a streaky overexposure. If it’s really dark out, then let the shutter go for 10-20 seconds. For the sharpest images, place your camera onto something sturdy. Given the Fisheye 2’s super-wide-angle view, handheld shots can be pretty sharp too – as long as you hold still. For buckwild abstracts – move you camera around with the shutter open – or even twist it in a circle!Multiple Exposure Switch (MX)This allows you to take two or more shots on the same frame. Take your first shot, press the MX button, and you’re now ready for the next one. Repeat as many times as you like. Full Metal JacketIf those rowdy bikers are giving you a hard time, then just show ‘em the Fisheye 2’s new hard-as-nails metal-plated exterior. Built for toughness, but refined for beauty – you’ll feel equally comfortable slinging your camera at a Texas Hog Pit or a Parisian Debutante Ball.170-degree Field Of ViewThe heart, soul, and blood of the Fisheye’s brilliance: an enormous field of view that takes in literally half of the world around you and compacts it into a nice and tight circular image. Barrel distortions twist and bend your subjects around the edges, stretch them towards and away from your lens, and converge their lines towards the center. See for yourself – the effect is simply stunning.“LNB” Variable Exposure SwitchUse this to control your Fisheye 2’s shutter timing. “L” locks the shutter so it can’t accidentally fire. “N” shoots a normal, instant exposure (1/100 sec, f/8). “B” or “bulb” selects F |
