Most cameras now will take a very good picture, and most cell phones for that matter! Cameras have come a long, long way. I just upgraded to a semi professional camera, and love it..but honestly, if I were just taking quilt pics, I'd go for a good name brand point and shoot...kodack, olympus, nikon...sure i'm forgetting some..but they will all take a very good pic..if you just want it for the occasional family pic and quilts..don't stress yourself out too much..they all will take great pics.
