"The best camera is the one thats with you." - Chase Jarvis

With the above in mind, here is the gear that I use for those who might be interestes in that sort of thing...

Main Camera

Canon EOS R6 Mark II

Upgraded to this full frame body in 2022 and have never looked back. Fast, sturdy, and so comfortable in the hands. A perfect akrounder som someone like myself who shoots a few different things.

24.2MP is more than enough, anyone who says otherwise either crops heavily, or looks at their pictures too close.

RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS USM

The perfect all round lens (if you dont mind the size and weight). This beast lives on my camera most days.

RF 14-35mm f/4L IS USM

Small, sharp, spectacular. Whenever I want to go wide this lens is the way to go.

RF 70-200mm f4L

Portable telephoto goodness.
Just as good as the f/2.8 version for image quality, to travel lighter it's a no brainer.

RF 50mm f/1.8 STM

The "Nifty Fifty". For when i want to go light and a bit less conspicuous. A fabulous "cheap" little prime.

Accessories

Shimoda Action X30

Rugged, comfortable and flexible. Fits all the gear I need for a big day out no matter where I'm at. Being pretty much completly waterproof even without the external and internal rain covers is a big plus too.

Peak Design Capture

Lives on any bag I use when out shooting. Makes sure I always have my camera at the ready so I don't miss fleeting oppotunities.

KASE Wolverine Magnetic Filters

I don't like the bulky square systems as I like to travel lighter. These magnetic filters are so easy to change and portable. Love them.

Sirui Carbon Fibre Tripod

Lightweight, compact and affordable. Holds camera steady when needed for a nice long exposure or getting myself in shot too.

Second Camera

Canon EOS M50

The camera I started with (one may have died in a river...).
A perfectly capable yet small camera. A couple of years spent with this before makign the move to full frame with the R6 MKII
Still gets used as a backup or if I want a more inconspicuos option. Big cameras attract attention sometimes not wanted.

EF-M 22mm f/2 STM

This little thing is so sharp and portable. Can pocket the M50 with this on. Perfect inconspicuous combo when looking for street photos.

EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM

Excellent little wide angle lens. Surprisingly sharp and means you can get nice and wide on the APS-C body.

EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM

Small and decent enough. Have taken plenty of nice wildlife images with this little thing, including one of my all time favourites. The best gear is the gear you have with you.

Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN

Was looking for a slightly tighter bright prime than the 22mm f/2 and this was the option. Love this in low light and for enviromental portraits on the M50.
