Every now and then I see questions on what gear I use to shoot my stuff, so here’s a list…

Also, I’d always recommend checking out mpb.com for used versions of this gear to save some cash. I buy lots of stuff used, all of it on mpb.com. Here are links to countries where they operate:

Sony A7RV
A camera I’m learning to love. In short it’s a perfect little machine that delivers everything I could ever want from a camera, but it’s utterly void of personality. Not a deal breaker, clearly, but I wish it had a couple of quirks.
Sony A7 IV
An amazing hybrid camera. This is my primary body for filming, and my second body for stills. With 4k 10 bit and 30 odd megapixels, it’s great at both. Again, more machine than companion.
Sony 40mm f2.5 G
My go-to focal length and my go-to lens, particularly in cities or tight spaces where I don’t want to look like a photographer who needs a permit. As sharp as it is small, and its metal construction means it’ll last.
Sony 24-50 f2.8 G
The newest addition to my kit. This lens provides the most useful bits of the 24-70’s range (for my work at least) but is just over half of the weight. It zooms out from the long end too, which I love.
Peak Design Outdoor Sling 2L
Room for a couple of batteries, a microphone and some keys. Oh and a Pocket 3 video camera. My perfect bag for days I can get away with being out with a single camera.
Peak Design Outdoor Sling 7L
Like the 2 litre version, but 5 litres bigger. Perfect for when I need to carry a second body and great for bike rides as it comes with a stabilising strap.
Peak Design Outdoor 25L
For when I need to carry all of my kit plus the kitchen sink. Holds all my gear plus a water bladder or laptop, and room for snacks and another layer too.
Peak Design Leash
I’ve got a couple of these. Super comfortable, light and easily adjustable length.
iPhone Pro 16 Max
My navigation, podcast, email, phone, instagram story, but most of all a genuinely impressive camera. You can, and I have printed huge with the files from the main camera to great effect. To be honest even if this thing did nothing else I’d use it as a pocket camera now.
