My Gear

I took my Store down because I wasn’t selling any photos. I need to take more photos and I don’t have a lot of people coming to my website each day. So I have decided that I’ll be downgrading to a crop sensor as I don’t need full frame any longer. I don’t even need one to sell prints. I’m looking at the Canon R7, but I’ll have to see what my options are in the future because I’m in desparate need of a job.

I would love to own the RF 200-800mm lens for wildlife.

Camera

Canon R5 – I’ve now gone mirrorless!! but still using the lenses below with an adapter

Canon EF 100mm f2.8 Macro – A lens for use in scenarios where I want to get up close and personal with a tiny subject. A MUST for those wanting a fantastic macro lens. Of course, it can be used for telephoto shots in your landscapes and for portraits

Canon EF 24-70mm f2.8 L II USM – My most used lens. Deemed from Ken Rockwell as the ‘World’s Sharpest Midrange Zoom’

Canon EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens - An excellent piece of kit. Used for wildlife

Canon RF 35mm f1.8 Macro - Recently bought. My intentions is to replace this lens with the 24-70 above, and use it for landscapes and some close ups

Canon EF 1.4x III Extender for Canon EF 100-400mm. My plan is to own the RF 200-800, and then selling the 100-400 IF the 200-800 is pin sharp

Spare Canon R5 Battery - Type LP-E6NH battery

Benro Mach3 TMA38CL Carbon Fibre Tripod and Benro VX30 Dual Panoramic Ball Head - Much lighter combination than what I previously owned

Pixel TW-283 90 Wireless Timer Remote Control – Needed a remote then I didn’t need to have my finger on the trigger all the time whilst trying to capture images of salmon jumping. Also perfect for wildlife and general use

Peak Design Slide Camera strap - The #1 best selling camera strap available. I’ve owned it for quite some time now and can’t fault it

Manfrotto Offroad Hiker 30L – Nice bag and does the job. But if the camera compartment is in, there’s less room in the main compartment for everything else. I did a small review on my blog. No longer available to buy

Kase Revolution Magnetic Circular Filter 95mm Pro Kit - Newly bought piece of kit. The days of screw-on filters are a thing of the past

Software

Photoshop & Lightroom - The software I use to process my photos

Video

Camera: GoPro Hero 10 + various gear

(Wouldn’t mind filming with a small camera, maybe a dedicated camera to film with. But as mentioned above, I need a job first)

Editing Software - Davinci Resolve
