I rely heavily on my gear and workflow tools to deliver all my content. So for some of who who are wondering what gears/software I use for my photography/filmmaking, here’s a list of all the tools I use 🙂
Standard Camera Gear
I am now a fully transition Sony shooter. For shoots, I bring all of these:
| Gear | Description |
|---|---|
| Sony A7III | My main camera. |
| Sony RX100VA | My backup/BTS camera. |
| Sony A 20mm 2.8 | My wide angle lens for shooting |
| Sony FE 35mm 1.8 | Standard lens for shoots |
| Sony FE 85mm 1.8 | My main lens when shooting with my A7III |
| Sony FE 50mm 1.8 | My go-to lens when the 85mm is too tight for shooting |
| Helios 44-2 | For artistic shots |
| 5-in-1 Reflector | |
| Benro C1691T Tripod | |
| Generic LED Lights | For a little boost if light is scarce |
Other Gears/Accessories
If I would be travelling with the wife and pack, or would like to do some cinematic time-lapses, hyper-lapses, or drone shots, I would consider also bringing these:
| Gear | Description |
|---|---|
| DJI Osmo Mobile + Base | For run-and-gun vlogging and timelapses |
| Rode VideoMicro + SC7 cable | For awesome audio |
| DJI Osmo Mobile Universal Mount Adapter | For attaching the VideoMicro and Tripod |
| Tripods/Grips/Attachments | |
| Macbook Pro 13″ Laptop | Not really a fan of bringing it. But just in case my trip is longer than usual. |
| Travel adapter | Don’t leave home without it! |
Camera Bags
Depending on the amount of gear I will be bringing, I would usually use either of these three bags:
| Gear | Description |
|---|---|
| LowePro Fastpack 100 | When you just need 1 camera body and a few lenses |
| Crumpler – C-List Celebrity Medium | When I am bringing a whole lotta gear |
| NatGeo A5270 Rucksack | My travel backpack. Fits a camera body + 2 lenses, my drone, osmo mobile, mini-tripods and laptop |
Workflow Tools
My standard tools for post-processing and video editing are as follows:
| Software/Tool | Description |
|---|---|
| Final Cut Pro X | For editing/compiling videos |
| Adobe Photography Bundle | For editing photos I use the Adobe Photography bundle which has both Lightroom and Photoshop — best deal ever if you ask me. |
| iMac 27″ Desktop | My main workstation! Still the best out there compared to the laptop 🙂 |
| WD My Book Studio EXT HD 3TB | My workstation’s Time Capsule for instant backup |
| Western Digital – My Passport 4TB | My external archive drive for all of my pictures/videos 🙂 |
There you have it, my whole gear and workflow tool list! So if you ever have any questions as to why I charge so much, it is because I really invest in my gear in as much as my skills 🙂
