I am thinking about buying a CANON 450d digital SLR camera (which comes with a bog-standard 18-55mm Lens.
I am a Graphic Designer and need to take mostly LANDSCAPE shots (beautiful scenes of local landscape and coastlines) with a Camera that will give me the Highest Quality Image Resolutions to thus be eventually used in high quality printed Large Brochures, A2 Posters, etc.
I am not a photography expert and so need some advice on Lenses:
1. Is the standard 18-55mm Lens reasonably ok for my purpose?
2. Should I purchase a new Lens that will give me better LANDSCAPES results/capability/panoramics/etc?
3. If yes, then What Type/Make/Specs/ImageStabilisation/Price of lens would be best?
Many, many thanks for any help!
Answer
The kit lens is reasonable good, but not the best.
You might want an ultra wide angle lens like the EF-S 10-22mm.
Here are some good landscape lenses and reviews:

Good Canon digital camera?
I already have the zoom and standard lens from my rebel g camera which I assume would be interchangeable with a digitial camera??? so am wondering what a good digital camera model would be (also Canon) that would give professional type results. I need high pixels so that I can submit photos to a professional stock photo site.
Answer
The previous poster's recommendation would be good if you did not need a digital SLR, but you will need one if you want to use those lenses. To answer your first question, you will be able to use them as long as they are EF mount lenses. You can tell by looking on the lens box most of the time.
Again, to use your lenses, you will need a digital SLR. Canon offers several high megapixel options at varying price points. Depending on your definition of "high megapixels", here are some recommendations. Let's just say you need 10 megapixels or higher.
There is a digital SLR available from Canon at every level (entry level, prosumer, and professional) that is 10 megapixels or higher.
10 megapixels: 400D ($800), 40D ($1200), 1DMarkIII ($4500)
12 megapixels: 5D ($2600)
16 megapixels: 1Ds Mark II ($7000)
22 megapixels: 1Ds Mark III ($8000, ships in October)
If these are all out of your price range, you may have to give up lens interchanging capability for a conventional digital point and shoot. The A640 (10mp) and Powershot G9 would be worth looking at, too.
