Professional photo equipment

Greetings!


I have been asked by clients "what kind of equipment do you use"? Professional photographers have many many tools and

techniques at their disposal. Everyone has an opinion! Mac or pc? Digital or Film? Nikon or Canon? Mamiya or Hasselblad? The truth is it does

not matter what your tool of choice is. It's the end result that counts. Digital has surpassed film in so many ways now. Film was great! However, just as the horse and buggy was replaced by the cars, trains and airplanes. It's time is simply over. Sure a few artists that prefer to print on their own in a darkroom but all professional labs scan film and use a digital printer for portraits.



So what do I use ? I have to add a smile here =) . I use the right equipment for each job. For beach and studio portraits I use a Nikon D700 pro. I also have a Canon D30 as a backup. My other back up cameras are a Mamiya and a Rangefinder. Won't my competition now find out what I use? Sure! That's fine. I consider it a great complement that other photographers look to my studio for information about how to do portraits.
