The Gear
Some of you had been wondering what tools I have been using. So here’s a short list of what equipment I used to get these shots together with its post-processing equipment:
Camera Detail:
Nikon D70s camera - the camera
Nikkor AF-S DX 18-70mm f3.5-4.5G lens - standard lens given with the camera kit
Digitex UV filter - I put on at all times to protect the lens from dirt and scratch
Kingston 1GB and 256MB CF memory cards - So far more than enough for short half day trips
Vertex S211 tripod - complimentary with the camera
Delsey XEO Z-100BG camera bag - to easily pack my camera and bring it almost all times
Post-Processing:
Apacer MegaSteno 17 in 1 card reader - to tranfer images to my computer
Apple Powerbook G4 1.33Ghz 768MB RAM Macintosh OS X 10.4 Tiger
Apple Aperture 1.01 - to manage and do some slight adjustments on images
Adobe Photoshop CS2 - to do heavy adjustments and tweaks on images
So I hope you can get a rough idea on what gear i’m using and hopefully you can also provide me some input, recommend me some other important stuff I might be missing. I’m eying on Nikkor AF 70-300mm G for tele stuff but i still make a lot of camera shakes on my 18-70mm… oh well lets see…
Edit: Added Nikon Nikkor AF 70-210mm f4-5,6 tele-zoom lens, so never mind the 70-300mm G, its now upgraded to sb-600 flash=)
