digital cameras
about time to replace mine wondering what other people are using to get the best pics of your work

Greg,
There are lots of good cameras out there. I chose one that had good low light capability so I could shoot with good ambient light and not washout with a flash.
Equally as important as the camera is to buy a tripod. They are inexpensive. Most shots are slightly blurred by camera motion during hand-held shooting. Good sharp pix come from steady tripod mounted cameras.
best of luck,

I use a Nikon D70s. I have a 27-105mm lens that is pretty good for inside. I could use a wider lens for some of the smaller rooms but that's another bit of money. I also have a good photo editing package, PaintShop Pro, not great but very good. You really need to have the editing if you want to tweak your pictures or make them magazine quality.

I bought a Nikon D50 about a year ago, along with a good 18-50 mm wide angle lens and a telephoto. While the camera is only 6.1 effective mega pixels, having good photo editing software is absolutely key to good end results.
I have also had Paint Shop Pro for several years, and about two years ago I bought ULead's PhotoImpact XL, a very good editing package.

Greg,
I use a Nikon D70 with a 18/50 lense. Even with the 18 in a small room it leaves me wishing for a wider angle lense.
My next lense for room photos will be a 10/20.
The D70 is excellent for that type of photo.
Photoshop is my software of choice.
