Hello! I am a novice 3d modeler and use orthographic images to recreate objects in blender. I’m looking to start creating my own orthographic images so that i can expand the number of things i can model, as it is often the case that these images do not already exist for the things i want to make. I currently know nothing about photography and was wondering if some one here could point me into the right direction so that i may continue my work. The things i want to model tend to be around 150mm in size though can be as large as 300mm. They can be made smaller by dividing the objects into its constituent parts then all i would have to do is take photos of the individual parts instead of the whole object.

​

Anyways on to the point of this post. Could some one recommend a camera that could achieve taking orthographic photos of items this size. Also because I know nothing about photography is there something i should know if i am attempting to make orthographic images.
