CANON<br />
EF 500MM F/4L<br />
IS USM (HOLDING)<br />
AND CANON EF 600MM<br />
F/4L IS USM<br />
Greatfor isolating sections<br />
of landscape, I also use<br />
these super telephoto<br />
lenses forwildlife<br />
and flowers.<br />
CANON<br />
TS-E 24MM<br />
F/3.5L<br />
I customised this so<br />
tilt-and-shift functions<br />
operateinthe same plane.<br />
It maximises front-toback<br />
sharpness and<br />
preventsvertical<br />
distortion.<br />
CANON<br />
EOS 5D MARK II<br />
My main landscape<br />
camera, as it’s gotsuperb<br />
resolution when used with<br />
agood lens and is lighter<br />
and smaller than my 1Ds<br />
Mark III. Live View mode<br />
comes in very<br />
handy too.<br />

BEAMER FLASH<br />
EXTENDER<br />
When shooting birds with<br />
a long telephoto lens, this<br />
createsanice catchlight<br />
in the subject’s eyes, and<br />
reduces contrast in<br />
strong sun by filling<br />
in shadows.<br />
CANON<br />
EF 16-35MM<br />
F/2.8L II USM<br />
My primary wide-angle<br />
lens. Some prime lenses<br />
can provide slightly sharper<br />
results, but Imuch prefer<br />
the compositional<br />
freedom afforded<br />
by zooms.<br />

CANDLE POWER<br />
TORCH<br />
I use this to illuminate<br />
features in the landscape at<br />
dusk –soIcan work longer,<br />
and get cool lighting<br />
effects in overcast<br />
weather.<br />
MANFROTTO<br />
351MVCF<br />
This tripod copes well<br />
with the demands of<br />
shooting seascapes. Ifind<br />
it’s very stable, lasts longer<br />
than other makes and<br />
is less expensive<br />
to replace!
