CAMERA GEAR

Olympus OM Digital Solutions OM-1 MarkII and Olympus E-M10MarkII. Much lighter than my other brands and fabulous features that I am still exploring.

LUMIX G 25/F1.7 Not the sharpest and bad chromatic aberrations but light weight and decent bokeh

OLYMPUS M.12-40mm F2.8 Sharp, good focus speed. Light compared to other crop factors and weather sealed.

Canon EOS R6 ii (image quality and autofocus is wonderful with RF lens. Works well with EF's

Canon RF 70-200mm f/4 L IS (light, very quite, great AF response)

Sony a7R iii (great image quality but menu and dials are not to my liking)

Sony 28 f2. light, sharp

Canon FD 135mm 2.8 and also a 3.5 Works great with Sony and decent with Olympus M43

Canon FD 50mm 1.8 Works good with Sony and decent with Olympus M43

Canon 5D Mark III Heavy and limited dynamic range but still can produce beautiful images

Canon EF 24-70 2.8 Sharp, reliable and convenient focal range but heavy.

Canon EF 85 1.8 My main portrait lens. I normally shoot f2 and above.

NikonD50 digital (lightweight and very capable)

Nikon 8008s film (neglected for now but a great camera)

Nikon 50mm 1.8 (good images on nikons, not so great on other brands)

Sigma 30mm 1.4 (very useful in low light, tricky depth of field but excellent images)
