Gear
Camera Bodies:
Two Canon EOS 5D Mark III (my new workhorses!)
Canon EOS 60D (the articulating screen is priceless!)
Lenses:
Sigma 85mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM (one of my favorite lenses. creamy bokeh is sublime. I don’t like the Canon 85mm f/1.2 L because the focus ring is too loose and too inaccurate. the Sigma 85mm f/1.4 takes a 77mm filter and it’s like a black hole swallowing any light. I call it the Kegma.)
Canon EF 24mm f/1.4 L II USM (love to fly with this on the Steadicam.)
Canon EF 35mm f/1.4 L USM
Canon EF 50mm f/1.2 L USM (another favorite lens. I could shoot a whole wedding with this lens.)
Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM (nifty-fifty.)
Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 L IS USM Macro (quiet stabilization is magnificent.)
Canon EF 135mm f/2.0 L USM (lightning-fast autofocus is stellar.)
Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS II USM (I loved my Canon 70-200mm f/4 L IS but now with this lens I get to have the best of both worlds. I retain the same performance and quality of that lens and have the large aperture of f/2.8! my big boy toy!)
Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 AT-X Pro DX (very low-distortion and the capability of using this lens as a 16mm prime on full-frame body is a thing of beauty.)
Audio/Sound:
Rode VideoMic Pro (great sound quality from this little mic)
Sennheiser ew 112-p G3 Wireless Lavalier Mic (impressive all metal construction with great sound quality and range)
Zoom H1 Audio Recorder (love the discrete and small form factor)
Tascam DR-40 (has an amazing feature that the Zoom H4n doesn’t have!)
Monitors/Viewfinders:
Zacuto Z-Finder Pro with Gorilla Plate (the best VF with diopter and the anti-fog is critical.)
SmallHD DP4 Monitor/EVF (beautiful build quality and future-proofed with firmware updates. versatile as a field monitor or as an EVF.)
Stabilizers:
Philip Bloom Kessler Crane Pocket Dolly (simply, the best dolly I have ever used.)
Manfrotto Fluid Video Monopod 561BHDV (ingenious design. though, I wish it was carbon fiber. I wish everything was carbon fiber.)
Steadicam Arm & Vest (love the double-suspension arm for smooth flying.)
Glidecam HD-2000 (rock-solid performance and great manual adjustments on the fly.)
Flycam Nano Steadicam (I take this whenever I need to travel light. very compact and stable.)
Konova Skater Dolly (got this compact dolly from Korea and I love it!)
Pico Dolly (love the compact size for travel)
Sachtler Ace Tripod System with Fluid Head (the best tripod I have ever used)
Sirui Carbon Fiber Tripod (the best lightweight travel tripod)
Induro Carbon Fiber Monopod
Lighting:
Lowel Tota-lights
Lowel Omni-lights
Lowel Pro-lights
312 Bi-color Dimmable LED Lights (love how I can control the color temperature on these and super bright too!)
Three Canon Speedlite 600EX-RT (Canon’s new flagship flashes with new built-in wireless radio triggering! gang these together for some high-speed syncing fun!)
Canon Speedlite Transmitter ST-E3 (this new Canon transmitter commands all my Speedlites with wireless radio technology!)
Manfrotto Aluminum Air-cushioned Light Stands x 3 (love how these stack and lock together!)
