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 />

FIVE<br />

MILLION-<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!
