Hi everyone!

I need help with choosing a new object to product photography.

I need to take sharp and bright pictures from close distances. I'm completely out with all kind of objects so all help is highly appreciated! :)

My camera is - surprise surprise ' EOS 600D. The price range would be up to 650 euros, maybe higher, if it's very special. In spare time I shoot mostly landscapes, so if you have any lenses to propose, you tell me. Uhm, focal lenght is not important for me. I hope high luminant, wide angle picture, as wide as possible, as long as it does not ile fish-eye lens. Same price cap.

I’m not very familiar with English, so excuse me. :)

There's some pictures, then you may be understand me a little better.

Welcome to POTN. You English is very good, don't worry about it.

Those are nice photos of what appear to be starting motors. For close photography, I found the Canon 60mm f2.8 lens very good and not very expensive.

from close distances... I hope high luminant, wide angle picture, as wide as possible, as long as it does not ile fish-eye lens.

Didn't your camera come with a 18-55mm Kit lens? It will do close-ups, & while it's not very fast (high luminant), a good tripod should solve that problem.

Uhm, focal lenght is not important for me.

Well, yes it is. This is what tells you if a lens is wide angle, or telephoto.

In spare time I shoot mostly landscapes,

Why doesn't the Kit lens work for these, too?
And generally for product shots, you want a longer focal length to help prevent distortion. 55mm should be a good starting point.
