What's In My Camera Bag

What's In My Camera Bag... 2025 Edition

Over the past few years, I have owned and used almost all of the high-end mirrorless cameras from all the major brands, including Canon, Fujifilm, Nikon, Olympus, Panasonic, and Sony.  Each of them comes with a mix of compelling features as well as some irritating compromises, and none of them is perfect for all situations.  All of these cameras are capable of producing excellent results, so the question of which is the "right" camera system mostly comes down to personal preferences.  

As of May 2025, my current camera kit for wildlife, nature, travel, and landscape photography is based on the Canon EOS mirrorless system:

Canon EOS R5 Mark II 45-megapixel mirrorless camera

Canon RF 14-35mm f4L IS USM lens

Canon RF 24-105mm f4L IS USM lens

Canon RF 70-200mm f4L IS USM lens

Canon RF 100-500mm f4.5-7.1L IS USM lens

Canon RF 600mm f4L IS USM lens

Canon RF 1.4x teleconverter

Other Equipment I Use:

Apple MacBook Pro laptop computer
Gitzo carbon fiber tripods
Arca-Swiss ball heads

Kase, Lee, and Zeiss filters

Dynamic Perception Stage Zero motion time lapse rig (now discontinued...)
Clik Elite, MindShift and ThinkTank camera bags (you can never have too many camera bags... )
