What I shoot on,
and what I shoot with.
Photography started as a necessity. Age Care Bathrooms needed product shots and I was the one taking them. I bought my own A6700 a few weeks later and never put it down. Added the A7 V as my main body and built the rest of the kit around it.
Cameras
2 itemsSony Alpha 7 V
Sony
Full-frame workhorse. Stills, video, almost everything paid. The body the rest of the kit revolves around.
Sony Alpha 6700
Sony
APS-C B-cam and travel body. Fast autofocus, light enough to hold for a full day. Picks up the second angle on bigger shoots and goes most places I take a camera.
Lenses
4 itemsSigma 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II Art
Sigma
The do-everything zoom. Lives on the A7 V. Events, portraits, brand work, anything where I'd otherwise rotate three primes.
Sony FE 16mm F1.8 G
Sony
Wide full-frame prime. Interiors, environmental portraits, the occasional run-and-gun video where small and fast wins.
Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN Contemporary
Sigma
APS-C standard zoom for the A6700. Roughly a 27-75 on full-frame. Light, sharp, my walk-around for travel.
Sigma 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN Contemporary
Sigma
APS-C ultra-wide for the A6700. Tight interiors, architecture, vlog-style B-roll where the 16mm isn't wide enough.
Support
2 itemsK&F Concept 61" Tripod
×2K&F Concept
A pair of light carbon-style tripods. One for stills, one for B-cam or audio. Simple, reliable, packs small.
