Okay, so if 2 and 3 are important you are stuck with the big manufacturers like Nikon, Canon, Olympus and Sony (unless you have the budget for a +20k$ Hasselblad :-)
A good lens will set you back at least 1 to 2k $ a piece. Go full frame like the D700 Nikon. It's a perfect toy if you want to have fun :-)
If on a budget a used D70 or D80 Nikon will do just fine. Quality lenses for the DX format start at 800 bucks.

Some people (1 guy) here will tell you hands down you HAVE TO HAVE THE BEST CAMERA. I disagree. I think it's the carpenter not the tool. Look at DMFC. He could shoot an awesome image with a Holga if he wanted to.
