Camera Gear We Use 

 

SONY α7S III full-frame image sensor. A truly astonishing camera. We use as our primary camera for gun and run shooting. We use a simple cage made by SmallRig.

 

SONY α7 III full-frame image sensor mirrorless camera was out main camera through 2018-2020. It will be used as a second camera now we have the A7S3.

 

SONY FX-6 full-frame image sensor camcorder. Be prepared for a big learning curve. Amazing images, but quite demanding on the operator

 

 

SONY FE 90mm F2.8 Macro G OSS. Amazing value. Very sharp and great macro. The focus motors are a bit noisy.

 

SONY FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM. This has been my standard lens for a few years now. Wonderful tonality.

 

SONY FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM. My newest lens, I see myself using it as a standard lens for a lot of things.

 

SONY FE 24mm F1.4 GM. A wonderful prime lens for those georgous shots!

 

SONY FE 35mm F1.4 GM (I don’t have it, but I want one)

 

USB Studio interface links my computer to the XLR narration mic and Yamha near-field powered monitors. Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB.

SONY FE 55mm F1.8 Sonar. (I mainly use this in my studio for presentations to camera)

 

DJI ACTION CAM

 

Microphones

 

 

Not a bad small general-purpose mic, but the mount isn’t very good. I use it with the Action Cam.

 

One of my oldest pieces of kit and an outstanding mic, Sennheiser ME66/K6 - Super-Cardioid Short Shotgun Mic.

Rode Lavalier GO Professional-Grade Wearable Microphone:

 

SONY UWPD11 wireless lapel mic. (I use this less these days as I prefer the RODE GO).
