At the moment I'm using Sony A7. Most of my work I'm photographing with manual lenses -that's how I learned back in the days.

Some of my most used lenses are
- Samyang 14mm f2.8
- Canon FD 24mm f2.8
- Canon FD 35mm f2.8
- Olympus 50mm f1.8
- Minolta MD 70-200 f4
- Benro tripod and slightly modified Patagonia Black Hole 32L backpack.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, and Photoshop CC.
