EquipmentI use both digital capture and film capture. My general preference is Large Format with Fuji Velvia film. Fuji Velvia is a high contrast, low grain, high saturation film that renders landscape images beautifully. My lens selection for 35mm Digital are influenced from my background with large format cameras. The tilt/shifting features of Canon TSE lenses allow me to control perspective and distortion to an extent that are otherwise impossible with non tilt/shifting lenses. I have been through several cameras and lenses throughout the years, currently I have: Camera Body: Chamonix 045n-1 Camera Body: Canon 5D MKII I tend to carry both equipment in the field... I generally carry the Canon 5D on a LowePro chest pouch and 3-4 lenses with the Large Format on an Internal Frame backpack. Add bear canister, 2-4 days supply of food, tent, sleeping bag, etc., and you can begin to get an idea of weight that I carry...surprisingly it's less than 40lbs - check out www.backpackinglight.com for tips in this endeavour. |
