For Kimmer
My camera base is a Canon EOS 1D Mark IV
The lens used for the flowers was a Canon EF 180mm F3.5L Macro USM
The lens I use for the "action" shots is a Canon EF 70-200mm F2.8 L IS II USM
And the lens I use for the Northern Lights photos is a Canon EF 24-70mm F2.8
I love them all equally.
Some of my little grotty pictures are taken with the Canon Powershot G9 which I am beginning to loathe and detest.
It is about to be replaced by the Leica V-Lux 4
I do, however, really like the little camera in my iPod 5th Gen - now I am getting to grips with it.
I only use a tripod for the Northern Light photos.
I hate my tripods. I trip up over them!
