David’s gearCamerasMy main cameras are a Canon EOS 5D Mark II I also use a c. 1968 Canon Canonet QL17 rangefinder on occasion. LensesThe lenses that make me money – the ones I use for most of my portrait shoots – are the 35mm. f/2, the 50mm f/1.4 and the 85mm f/1.8 – here’s why I shoot with primes for fun and profit. The others have come in handy too at various times, but I like keeping things simple, so have sold on a lot of lenses I wasn’t using that much).
(Lenses with lines through them are the ones I used to have but no longer use. Links from all the lenses are affiliate links to their page on Amazon (US) – if you buy them through these links, I’ll get some money to help fund the blog. And buy coffee.) Hardware and SoftwareI use a MacBook Pro 2.66Ghz Intel Core i7 Duo with 8GB of RAM. Apple Aperture Day to day images are on duplicated external drives including a Drobo (acrosss two locations) and backed up online using the impressive Dropbox (affiliate link) service, Smugmug and PhotoShelter. I also use multiple offsite DVDs. |
