Great. I appreciate your sound advice and will endeavor to apply it.

Thank you to everyone who replied to my question. I have just confidently ordered the Canon ef-s 10-18mm lens.

I'd appreciate some guidance from photographers, please. I have a Canon 200D and need to buy a lens to photograph my home to upload pictures to the internet to rent it out. Can anyone suggest a good lens for me to buy to do the job well, please?

That's great: Thanks for the guidance, it's always welcome:)

Sorry Phil, I confused you with the image that I uploaded, as it was only meant as an example of a garment that has lines that often show up as 'wavy', (forget about the weave for now, to get more clarity on one issue at a time - my fault for the crossed wires) The swatch on the image I...

Thanks for all replies which I appreciate. I've put an image of a typical problem that I would encounter with an image with stripes. The image that I've uploaded wouldn't show the lines to be wavy when zoomed in more. This is reason that I put a swatch next to the garment to show that it is...

I take photos of clothing, but occasionally need to take a closer photo of the pattern / weave as it doesn't show up enough in the pic of the full garment, so I take a closer pic of the pattern / weave and add a swatch next to the full picture, so that the pattern / weave can be seen. I want...

Thanks for the advice re the tripod. I can clearly see how both Phil's and Garry's advice both make equally valid points. Thanks for this sound advice from you both.

Thanks for this great advice. I really appreciate it. All of this is now coming together for me.

Hi Phil, Thanks for this great advice. What would be a good tripod for this ?

Hi Richard, Thaks for your reply. After trying without success to find the right kit, I give up as there are so many permutations (and I fully understand that) so I continued with my Canon S95 until I can get around to looking again for a better option. I have no one to look to for sound...

Can anyone advise me of what to buy for my needs please. I take shots of clothing eg different coloured trousers and jeans. I put the garment on a white board on the floor and take the shot, then I make the background whiter by using photoshop. I don't use any studio lighting or softbox or...

All are sounding really good tips here and I really appreciate the help offered to me.

Many thanks for your help is438
