What digital camera is the best at picking up details for black and white photography?
I have an Olympus C-4000 and It takes good photos but doesn’t get the details I want. I’m hoping to find a camera under $600. I want something that picks up lots of details from far away and up close. I take a lot of nature photos and I’m starting to try portraits.
Not sure exactly what you mean by ‘details’.
A Hasselblad H3D is going to give you the best tonality for Black & White conversions. The Nikon D700 or Canon 5D Mark II would be adequate. I have not seen an APS-C camera that can really do B&W well.
“I want something that picks up lots of details from far away and up close.”
If you are talking about physical details then you might look into prime macro lenses and telephoto lenses.

If you are truly serious about B&W you should look into a Mamiya RZ67 and Ilford Pan F, Tri-X or XP2. Film is still best for B&W imagery.
