What's in my bag...
I use a LowePro Flipside bag which is a good sturdy bag with plenty of space and it is well priced.
​
So what is inside?
​
Obviously I have my camera a Canon 6D which I love and I am still learning to use, but that is one of the great things about photography, there's always something new to learn and discover.
​
Then I have my lenses:
​
Canon EF 50mm F1.8 it is lightweight and the cheapest 50mm prime that Canon make but it's an easy lens to use and takes great pictures, for the money it is excellent value.
​
Canon EF 100mm F2.8 USM This is my macro lens and it is fantastic. I love taking macro pictures and if there's anything wrong with my images it's down to me not the lens. I just need more practice.
​
Canon EF 70-300mm F4 - 5.6 USM this is a lovely high performance zoom which I really like but is mostly on loan to my son who has inherited my love of photography and with a lens like this in his bag it's no surprise.
Canon EF 24-105mm F4 L IS USM I got this lens with the camera and it really is a gem. It is almost always the lens which I have attached other than when I am doing macro, although as I move further into the world of wildlife photography I am making much more use of my last lens...
​
Tamron SP 150-600mm F5-6.3 This is quite a heavy lens and mounting it on a tripod makes sense whenever it is practical to do so but it is an awesome lens and it was worth saving up for.
​
I use a Manfrotto 190XPROB tripod with a 804RC2 head. It is a good sturdy piece of equipment and really useful.
​
Also in my bag, as well as a selection of filters, cleaning cloths, pens, torch and spare batteries I carry some Nikon Prostaff 7s 8x42 binoculars, excellent for spotting birds and other wildlife when I'm out and about looking for something to snap.
