This is a listing of equipment I use for capturing and editing images and videos. I spend a good bit of time reading reviews and trying stuff out to determine what I will use before I buy it. Hopefully this list will help you narrow down any choices you are making.
Consider clicking any of the Amazon links below if you plan to buy anything (not just photo equipment) from Amazon. If you buy something during that session at Amazon, it won’t cost you anything extra and I will earn a little commission. Your support is greatly appreciated.
