If starting out I would suggest Nikon or Canon. Most of the new cameras will have full 35mm format or a smaller format chip so that will effect the lenses you need. In 35mm terms I favor 24mm and perhaps you may want a lens that has a zoom range. Try not to go too wide with your lenses unless necessary because it dilutes the composition and looks like a snapshot. Also, with lenses you get what you pay for so don't go cheap. It doesn't matter how good the camera is if the optics are poor, expect to pay over $1700 for a good lens that gives very little distortion.
Best of luck!

you do not need to spend anywhere that much. If its just for a website and fairly small pictures, then a nice versitile bridge will be fine. Unless your wanting to spend more.

most of the shots were taken with a fuji S9600 |
