My Gear

AKA: The useless list!

As two people with the same gear will not produce the same results!

I don’t regularly “upgrade” equipment unless it fails to serve.
Either due to a hardware failure or some performance issues that may be hindering my quest for images.
So if it keeps on working, some of my kit may seem rather old and dated.
Lists updated as of 2023/05 to remove individual item lists and links, now just focusing on generics.
As you can see I am very brand agnostic, I’ll use whatever works well for the least amount of outlay (gets me the best bang for buck).

Product links are no longer provided, as I am not affiliated or sponsored by any of these brands.

Just remember that the image is not in the gear!
It does not matter what you use, if you can imagine it with some work you can create the image.
