Camera Advise

Hi
Sorry if this is a little off-topic.
My passion is creating games textures with Photoshop. My current
digital camera is a first-gen that fish-eyes my textures to some
extent. I want to spend $500.
Anyone have any recommendations or things I should stay away from ?

Re: Camera Advise

What you're talking about is called "geometric distortion." In your
research, look for a camera and lens combination that meets your other
technical specifications and boasts the least amount of geometric
distortion.
Typically, geometric distortion decreases as the distance from the lens
increases, but it depends on a lot of factors. Few camera/lens
combinations for $500 will offer NO geometric distortion (it is
practically impossible; lenses bend light.)

unused words floating about:
To avoid 'fisheye' simply choose a good camera with a lens that will allow a
35mm equivalent of 70mm.
