I have a canon 6d that I use for the decent looking ones. I used to do a lot of photography but have kinda been sidetracked by the truck lately. I have a whole line of lenses though... sigma 35mm 1.4, canon 50 mm 1.8, rokinon 14mm 2.8, canon 24-105mm f4 and a canon 40mm 2.8. I tend to shoot mostly with the 50 though which ironically is probably the cheapest of the bunch.

My gf has a Canon but I don't know what kind. I'm going to have to ask her to show me it. I know it was expensive (not much else about it though).
Do you have a compressor? I shoot all my primer with a harbor freight purple gun ($10 bucks on sale). Just clean it really well first and play with the adjustments before you shoot something. There are a lot of good videos on youtube that show you how to set it up. Here is my frame that I sprayed.
My brother used a brush and did the bottom side of his Nova. Not as smooth obviously but looks good (the hvlp gun doesn't work to well upside down).
You can get 2k paints in a can. They are a bit more expensive though.
