Gear List

Table of Contents

I hate to admit it, but I am a gearhead. I think I’m much better these days at managing G.A.S. (gear acquisition syndrome) because I’ve sold a lot of my gear (and stopped buying new stuff!), whittling down my collection to a more manageable size, allowing me to focus more on shooting instead.

Less is more in terms of gear; as the more options there are, the more likely it will give me decision paralysis. There is one thing I like doing to keep me in touch with the gear I already own—to force myself to shoot with only one body with one lens for a week. It challenges my brain to focus on adapting to the limitations of that particular setup and to maximize creativity; which is especially true if shooting with a prime.
